I went to the Yosigo photography exhibition.

To be honest, I didn't know who Yosigo was.

I started taking photos as a hobby and wanted to buy a photo essay or a photo book, but I didn't know what to buy, and I felt frustrated because I wanted to see good photos.

By chance, I got an opportunity to go to the exhibition.

It was the first time in my life that I went to see an exhibition because I wanted to.

My impression? Very satisfying!

But first, let's eat before we go! I decided to visit a cafe called Hoehyeon Cafe.

I decided on the place while riding the bus (I'm a complete P).

The first floor is Hoehyeon Restaurant, which sells fish set meals and operates on a reservation-only basis.

The 'Stamina Set Menu' I was going to eat was sold on the second floor at Hoehyeon Cafe.

I'm really excited!

They sell Suntory draft beer...? Then I have to have some.

Karaage + shrimp tempura + Hamburg steak + Neapolitan pasta - isn't this the perfect combination for a man?

It was delicious... Now that I've filled my stomach, let's go see the exhibition.

It's lunchtime for office workers.

A Tim Hortons inside the building... I'm jealous.

Before seeing the photo exhibition, here's some of my own photography.

I like bird's-eye view compositions.

Buy me a drink too (Why?).

Okay, let's go!

The artist apparently took pictures of the same place multiple times.

He says he likes the different stories that emerge each time.

I also take pictures of the same place every time and think, 'Oh, it's boring!', but this makes me reflect.

'Different' stories in the 'same' place.

Yosigo also likes bird's-eye views.

Good!

Actually, the photos were good, but Ground Seesaw arranged the exhibition in a very sensual way, so the immersion was considerable (I could even hear the sound of the sea).

Look at this, look at how cool this is! (Excitement)

Ah, I want to shoot something fun like this too.

It's cool.

This was my favorite spot.

There are photos he took while staying in Tokyo.

There's a certain feeling that close-ups give.

I'll have to try taking some when I go to Japan next time...

I got quite a bit of inspiration here.

He's also been to Korea.

I also like bird's-eye view photos of crosswalks.

I'm going to try it at sunset.

Now, onto the US.

Road trip.

The artist was influenced by American photos from the 70s and 80s, they say.

I felt like I knew what kind of feeling it was just by looking at it.

Good... (Repeatedly saying 'good').

The artist wrote Korean in a cute way.

Come often!

I enjoyed it.. Actually, there's an interview video of Yosigo beyond this area, and that video was so good.

I could feel his attitude towards photography, and I think it will have a good influence on my hobby photography activities in the future.

So, as soon as I came out, I was inspired and went on a street photo shoot nearby.

Suske Photo Exhibition (Free).

...The pharmacies in Namdaemun are amazing...

I should be in the hospital.

Those aren't Crocs... (Hey!).

There was a frame given out at the Yosigo photo exhibition, and it feels good to use it like this.

I should carry it around.

I had fun, a fulfilling day.

I should go to other photo exhibitions.

The end~

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
