Daegu's International Body Painting Festival


Here's a shot of Daegu in the evening, some days its so cloudy and humid you can't see the mountains, but lately its been getting better with fall starting.


There was a ridiculously large park filled with people and a huge stage. I went with my friend Alisa, and it was awesome. I tried soju for the first time (yes it is as bad as I thought it was going to be).


We could walk around the tents and see the models being worked on and getting ready to walk on stage.


I didn't take that great of pictures because I was so far from the stage, but here are some I found online from the event.


You can tell that she is wearing underwear, most of the models were wearing that or even full body suits, which were then painted over. Korea is a pretty modest society, so it isn't surprising.

  1. These pictures are amazing, before I didn't know they would enlarge if I clicked on them. This must be airbrushing the colors blend so well. I would have enjoyed this for sure.. and Aunt Julie would have volunteered to be painted!
