Okay, if you are in Seoul this weekend, cancel your plans ๐ฎโจ Because this weekend, the Lotus Lantern Festival (์ฐ๋ฑํ) will fill Seoul with thousands of glowing lanterns, giant illuminated floats, traditional performances, and some of the most beautiful nighttime views youโll see all year. Iโve been to this festival so many times and it's pure magic every single year.
