On the first day of this month I could pass the Lotte Department Store at Myungdong, Seoul. People gathered taking photos. I looked into out of curiosity. There were two little tigers of six-month-old in a pane glass box. The department held an event of showing tigers because the next year would be a Year of Tiger as a zodiac sign in orient. Though the weather was cold the staff said that the floor was being heated by electricity. I was lucky to sketch them in downtown, Myungdong.
