Berendo Middle School Korean Troupe

Friday, September 18th, 2009

I was leaving Seoul International Park after having scrounged a copy of the events schedule of this year’s Korean Festival in LA when I saw these kids coming out of their school bus.

Traditional Korean costumes are so colorful, aren’t they? And the students were carrying traditional Korean instruments like the sizable drums you see in the picture. Turns out they were scheduled to perform at 5:30 pm. Too bad I had to miss the performance.

Berendo Middle School is located just a few blocks southeast of the park (Ardmore / Seoul International) where the festival is being held. Address: 1157 S Berendo Street, Los Angeles, CA 90006-3301

New Facilities for St. Brendan School

Saint Brendan (aka SBS) is technically not in Koreatown but the adjacent Hancock Park, which is a very affluent neighborhood in Los Angeles. Korean businesses are one block over on Western Avenue. I see a few Latino students and parents when I pass.
