En parlant de production artistique locale, j’ai aussi vu un groupe de jeunes qui faisaient de la musique sur une place, mais au lieu d’être pouilleux et sales comme des hippies français qui font des reprises de Bob (Marley) au djembé, eux avaient des bonnes guitares, des micros et au lieu d’une batterie, une fille faisait des claquettes.

Seoul is an interesting city. Did you know for example that when a new building is built, 1% of the money spent in the construction must be devoted to a public artistic display? Everywhere you go, if you see a huge building there will be a sculpture or a work of Art. That’s a nice way to sponsor local artistic production… And speaking of local art, I also saw a group of young people playing music in the streets; but instead of being dirty hippies playing Bob (Marley) covers with a djembé, they were pretty good at playing rock with electric guitars and a girl tap-dancing to provide the beat. And then they stopped to read aloud the SMS their public sent them. Because there was a big sign with a phone number, and you could send an anonymous text message and they would read it aloud and comment it. The only message I understood was “I want to have your baby”. The rest was in Korean, but from what I saw from the people it got better and better. That’s actually a great way to interact with the public. They were not playing, or giving a show, they were having fun with people.
