Caption from Chosun Ilbo: A creation made of LED displays modelled on the Cheomseongdae, a royal observatory of Silla Kingdom, at COEX, the venue of the G20 Seoul Summit.
A great example of how cutting-edge technology embraces tradition - here's the Cheomseongdae, a staple of Gyeongju's tourist attractions remade with LED screens. Participants who are unfamiliar with the pride of the Shilla Dynasty may be a bit puzzled by the structure which stands at the COEX but anyone who's paid attention to their ten-won note should appreciate the effort.

Was less enamoured with this hanbok inspired by the G20 Summit - not quibbling about the colours but the Disney-like design of the chima (skirt) which doesn't quite have the usual understated elegance of the traditional garb of Korea.
