South Korea: The Moon

Today, I received 2 postcards from South Korea and 1 from Vietnam.
Both of the cards from Korea were traded from a direct swap on Postcrossing.

This second card I got is also from South Korea sent by Eunhee. It's a simple picture of the moon, but it brings a sense of quiet and peaceful feel to the card. The outer space has always been a mysterious place because we the information we could get from it is always second hand, and not very many humans have set foot on our beautiful Moon before.

"There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls." - George Carlin

Also, the stamp on the very left is by far one of my favorite stamps from Korea. It features the Korean consonants and vowels that is called Hangul. Hangul was promulgated by Sejong the great with the main goal to increase the literacy of Korea at the time.
