EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the bustling streets of Seoul, South Korea during the 1920s, showcases a group of Shinshi Men, dressed in traditional attire, engaged in the leisurely pastime of smoking long-stemmed pipes. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the cultural traditions and social customs of a bygone era. The Shinshi Men, also known as the "Three-Position Scholars," were a social class of educated men in Korea during the Joseon Dynasty. They were known for their distinctive attire, which included a white robe, a top hat, and small hats worn on each side of their heads. In this photograph, the men are seen wearing these traditional garments, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The men are shown sitting on the ground, their long-stemmed pipes clenched between their teeth or resting on the ground as they puff on them. The pipes, with their intricate designs and long stems, add an air of sophistication to the scene. The men's faces are expressionless, suggesting a sense of calm and contentment as they enjoy their smoke. In the background, bicycles are parked haphazardly, adding to the sense of activity and movement in the bustling city streets. The small hats worn by some of the men create a striking contrast against the blue sky, while the white robes blend seamlessly with the pavement. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich cultural heritage of Seoul and the traditions of the Shinshi Men. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving history and celebrating the unique customs and traditions that make each culture so special.
