Earlier 20th Century Photos Showing Ordinary Koreans Life Go Online



Country girls and elderly woman spread a straw mat on the ground for fulling cloth by pounding it out.


From the website:
A set of rare photos showing the way ordinary Koreans lived at the beginning of the 20th century has been made public. The University of Southern California’s library website features some 150 pictures taken by the Rev. Corwin Taylor and his wife Nellie Blood-Taylor, who worked as missionaries in Korea from 1908 through 1922. The pictures have been put through a precision digital restoration process by the Korean Studies library, and some have been color-tinted.
So vivid to see those old photos!  Link
