Seoul Our Movie - Third Mission

Hey guys, I upload this video to participate in Seoul Our Movie and to accomplish the third mission as Global Seoul Mate. This video was taken in Seoul when I visited Seoul. This video is about the ceremony of changing the Royal Guards in Gyeongbokgung Palace, that I made them short from around 10 mins to 3 mins. I saw the uniformity and beauty from this ceremony (you can see from the uniform that they used), also to represent the heart of Seoul. Theme: Made in Seoul Link of the Video: Royal Guards in Seoul Information about Gyeongbok Palace: Gyeongbokgung was the first royal palace built by the Joseon Dynasty, three years after the Joseon Dynasty was founded in 1395. It was built by King Taejo, the first king and the founder of the Joseon Dynasty at the heart of newly appointed capital of Seoul and represented the sovereignty of the Joseon Dynasty.Cheers,Faramitha
