All kinds of ssireum going on in Gurye.

All kinds of ssireum (씨름, Korean traditional wrestling) going on at a little tournament last weekend in Gurye county.




You know, I think I'd like to go to one of those matches. They had some in Naju the weekend before last, and as far as I know my next chance around here will be June 26th-28th when the inaugural women's tournament comes to Gurye. But, they seem to have little exhibitions all the time---like at upcoming festivals in Daegu and Gangwon---so maybe some fights will break out around me soon.
