chu family korea trip




last weekend we returned from our trip to korea. our main reason for the trip was to attend suyeon's (suhee's sister) wedding. suhee & gideon went to korea before me in order to spend more quality time w/family, but we all returned on the same flight. the senior pastor of kwanglim church officiates all the weddings at kwanglim; on that day he had three weddings in a row. kwanglim is one of the largest & most affluent churches in korea. i haven't been back to korea since i lived there five years ago. in that short time i felt that korea changed so much & i changed so much too. it was very nostalgic & strange to be in korea again. it truly is a different world.

starfield concert



i went to the starfield concert on sunday night. a korean church (cornerstone) hosted the event at dwight morrow high school (that's where i took my s.a.t). i think the band wasn't used to being surrounded by so many korean people. the concert was good. they did mostly worship songs, rather than performance songs. if you look carefully at this pic, you can see me trying to blend in w/all the teenagers. i actually wore earplugs, in order to save my hearing. *thanks to john yum for the pic
