Traditional Korean architecture (Video clip)
Korean traditional architecture can be characterized by moderate elegance in decoration and humble openness in architectural design.
The moderate use of color might have derived from the country's serene landscape. The humble openness in design may have grown from the tendency of Korean people to adapt themselves to nature. These major characteristics may have evolved from ancient times by Korean master architects. Unlike their Chinese counterparts who were excessively preoccupied with strict symmetry, or the Japanese who were extremely concerned with the miniature, Korean architects tended to give a more comprehensive effort to maintain order and harmony with nature. The concern manifested both inside and outside architectural space, which consequently led to its humble openness.

I wished they have removed those snow flakes. It' blocking the scenery.
