(Hi, I like the pictures on your blog)

This one's a Korean style kite 연(I guess you already know that, sorry). We actually used to make those when I was a kid (20 years ago?), and fly them on the winter holidays (설 thru 대보름). but not sure about these days.

Wouldn't this be an ad for Absolut (alcoholic) beverages? See www.absolut.com.

Kokoflows are krazy - why do they do anything?...that's my nihon-centric $.02 :)

howdy y'all,

thankfully i have not been sequestered in a cave for the past 10 years, so the vodka connection was made :) but the korean kite connection was not so thanks for the heads up!

making and flying kites next new year sounds fun.

wow this is the first time i've seen a BD-Magenta scuffle on this particular site. i want more.

re: weird vodka kite... who knows. all you asians are crazzz. something about the tone & character-based languages make all y'all hard to relate to. s'why the flips don't fit in so well in asiatica. the manila absolut ad makes sense.

dear, dear judy,

i know the iron curtain did terrible things to the education system in your tiny armpit of eastern europe (i can never remember your homeland's name- probably because it always struck me as sounding more like a fiefdom than a bonafide nation with culture), but korean aint tonal and it's an alphabet. i'd share the real reason why flips don't fit in here but i'm sure i'd regret it. kisses. xo
