There's an endless stream of protests in Seoul. There are obviously different motivations behind each protest and as a non-native it can be a little hard to understand what or why a protest is happening. The pictures here were taken in front of the blue house, which is where the current president lives. The police are attempting to protect President Lee's residence(and I would assume life) from the angry mobs that gather in front of the building everyday. The Korean people feel that Lee's brutal and relentless investigation of the former president's spending habits were the main reason that the former president killed himself.
The other pictures are of a temple that we discovered while hiking.
