When you think of South Korea, you'll associate it to K-Pop, to heavy technological industrialization or even to the tensions it has with the "other" Korea. However, besides this stuff, South Korea has also a traditional side where the most representative place is the Andong Hahoe Village. This hamlet is said to be the capital of Korea's traditional culture as it stuns in architecture and festivals and was even chosen as a highlight during the Korean visit of Queen Elisabeth II. But maybe the most impacting fact is that the inhabitants are stuck in the past: the houses are made of mud, they cook with firewood instead of ovens and a simple television would look otherworldly here.
