Don’t Believe Everything You See at the Trickeye Museum

Anything you can imagine no matter how illogical can be captured in a picture at the Trickeye Museum. Before we even left the US, this was on my list as an attraction in Seoul.
Dad was a little hesitant has we tromped down the flights of stairs towards the large lobby that both our museam of choice as well as the Ice Museam shared. I can’t say the statues of people defecating on the floor and the fact you had to download an app really eased his uncertainty.
10 minutes later we were surrounded by murals so well painted it seemed they could walk right out of their painted frames, in fact some of them did! We had a good time posing for some hilarious and life like pictures.
The Trickeye App also actually implanted augmented reality into your picture or video as you took it.  It was really interesting and often funny but we found the digital characters and effects were not completely realistic and some of the shots were better without them.
After going through the estimated 50 or so scenes that make up the museum, we decided to go back through once more and take a few more pictures with some of our favorites. Dad was rarely a subject of the camera roll as he preferred to be the photographer, helping us pose just right for the best effect.
Our tickets also included a visit to the ice museum, with a chilly temperature of -2 degrees Celsius. Brrrr, sounds like Vermont in the Winter! We each took a ride down the ice slide before checking out the igloo, train, giant high heel, bedroom and living room constructed just out of h20. That was about all we had in us and everyone’s getting a little cold.
For our last night in the city we had a filling meal of Traditional Korean Pancakes at a restaurant just down from our hotel. We’d been curious about it ever since we’d noticed the 2 resident chipmunks that greeted us on the street whenever we passed by. Those two served as pets and mascots of the establishment.
