My passport picture to Korea

I arrived in Seoul,Korea, on November 27, 1972 on a flight from Seattle. The plane was full of Peace Corps Volunteer candidates. We bussed immediately to the capital city of Kang Wan Province, to a city called Choon Chun. Thirty two of us spent about 2 months at the King Sejung Hotel, learning the Korean language and culture and learning how to teach English As a Second Language. The group was great, the time was fun.

The official K-25 Photo The group was great, the time was fun. Here's a picture of the fun: Koreans like to sing alot. Here are recordings I made in 1973 of a folk song (Arirang), a pop song (Peega Onun Dea) and a political song (Sae Mal Undong).

Tom Coyner (K-35) has a web site that lists all known PCVs from Korea.
