Pride in South Korea

Submitted by: Nate M.

"I am an American teaching English here in South Korea, I recently came out and attended my first pride celebration in Seoul.  Homosexuality is not very well accepted here but that did not stop this small celebration from having a small voice.  So, I wanted to share with you a few photos from Seoul pride."

So today was amazing. I got to march with the Mormons Building Bridges at the Pride parade in SLC! First slot in the parade. Then got to go to help carry the flag (where I got that awesome first pic) at the last slot of the parade. So first and last in the parade…. YEAH! Also, the entire pride festival was just completely amazing.
