Jinju Orphanage


On Saturday Katie and I went with Arianne to an orphanage in the nearby city of Jinju. Katie, Arianne, and Maureen (a friend of Arianne) led a small English session with the kids. We sang songs and, as you can see, Katie read a book.



Do I look outnumbered to you? According to the kids, my hair is "yellow". The kiddos were all very well behaved and extremely friendly. After the lessons, we spent time doing a worksheet and coloring. When we were finished, the director, her son, and his family took us out to eat (galbitang at a traditional restaurant). We had a great day.




The following is a brief video of Arianne leading the children. This will give you some idea of her awesome Korean skills. Wherever she goes, the children always love her.
