Exif Data Zoom Torches in 남포동 Nampodong: Busan, South Korea
When we were at a bus stop in 남포동, there was a lot of commotion all of a sudden. I looked to the left and saw a crowd of people running with torches. At first, I thought that they were an irate mob, going to kill a monster. But as they got closer, I realized it was some sort of marathon. I have no idea why they were running and why they needed to have torches, but I can honestly say I’ve never seen anything like it before in my life.
