On December 1st, I attended a wonderful show in Sincherwon (the town over) hosted by the Cheorwon chamber ensemble. There were a variety of acts- orchestras, child violinists, solos, a capella, etc. And the best part? Along with the talented Koreans, my friends were performing!
Johanna was the M/C. She was paired with a Korean girl to do the translation. Jojo was so hilarious, but her counterpart was realllly not into what she was saying. Jojo would tell long stories or make jokes and then the girl would translate it into about 3 words. This whole situation was really funny in itself.

Scott and Claire each performed a solo, and Scott performed with the chamber ensemble. Of course, my favorite part of the show is when Matt, my boyfriend, got up and played 3 songs with Claire and Scott. Their band is called "The Clatt," which stands for Claire, Matt and Scott. I know, their name sounds like a disease. They played two songs that Matt had written, and then a Korean song that the audience got really into. Here are the videos posted below! I got the first and third song. The first video is "Fireflies" and the second one is a Korean song that none of us know the name of.
I apologize in advance for the end of the video being shakey. In all honesty, my arm got tired (I know, lamest excuse ever).
When the show was over, all the acts came on stage. Everyone was given at least two bouquets of flowers.
