Jeongseon (Jeongseon-gun) is a county in Kangwon Province, South Korea. It is famous as the hometown of "Jeongseon Arirang," a traditional Korean folksong. "Arirang" is arguably the most popular and best-known Korean folk song, both inside and outside Korea. Arirang is an ancient native Korean word with no direct modern meaning. 'Ari' means "beautiful" (For example the native Korean word 아리따운 means "beautiful", "lovely", "charming") 'Rang' can mean "dear".

It was a perfect weekend with an amazingly clear blue sky and beautifully colored mountains. I will not ever get this clear day in the near future.
