Field Notes

The Story

I was completely captivated by the sight of the Royal Guard changing ceremony at Deoksugung Palace. The sheer splendour of their golden robes and the intricate detail on their hats was something else. Standing there, amidst the grandeur of the palace gates, I felt transported back in time.

The crisp autumn air and the bright sunlight created a perfect setting for the vibrant colours of the procession. It was a moment where the old and new Seoul seemed to meet, with the modern city peeking out in the distance, but the focus firmly on this beautiful, living history unfolding before my eyes.
