When I came to Bosin Gak in Jongno, I saw three men standing there. The three men, who were dressed in traditional costumes, were imitating the guards of the Joseon Yi Dynasty. Bosin Gak was a bell tower built in the Joseon Dynasty, and the three men were recreating the attire of that era.
Even though I knew they were dressed as they used to be, I still felt uncomfortable when I suddenly saw them dressed in old-fashioned costumes in the town. It looks like they are in costume. In the modern city of Seoul, the three of them were clearly out of place.
