A 1946 tourism or culture info book for Korea, written and illustrated during the Colonial Period, gives the traditional look (by Westerners) at Korea's culture and customs. Color illustrations are vivid and traditional. You can sense the wonder of these two Westerners about the "orient," which infuses both the reportage and commentary, as well as the quality of the artwork and the subjects selected for illustration. Still, it's an interesting period look, though one that is glossed with sentimentality and charm. Sampling of illustrations below.

Thanks to his impeccable manners and handsome looks, Jung Woo Sung was chosen the most coveted bachelor in Korea. On a recent broadcast, there was a discussion on who the current top bachelors in the entertainment industry were. While stars such as So Ji Sub, Ha Jung Woo, and Gong Yoo were listed as some of the most popular bachelors, they were still no match for Jung Woo Sung. Part of the reason why Jung Woo Sung is considered an “icon of consideration” is that he doesn’t purposefully hide his private life and takes great care of those around him. When he broke up with his girlfriend of 10 years, he was still very concerned about the attention she would receive as she was not a celebrity.

With how caring he is towards the people around him, it’s no wonder Jung Woo Sung is the most coveted bachelor around! Source: Newsen
