EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of cultural exchange and cross-cultural interaction between Korean and Western women at the Nak Tong Mission House in Seoul, Korea, circa 1910. The image features a group of missionary teachers from the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel (SPG) taking tea with Korean women and girls, dressed in their traditional Hanbok costumes, outside the mission house. The Western women, dressed in blouses and skirts, represent the influence of Western culture and Christianity in Korea during the 1910s. The setting, with its traditional Korean buildings in the background, highlights the unique blend of Eastern and Western influences that characterized this period of Korean history. The scene is one of tranquility and camaraderie, as the women and girls engage in a simple yet meaningful ritual of sharing tea. The presence of a young boy and other children in the photograph adds to the sense of community and the intergenerational nature of the interaction. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the social and cultural dynamics of the early 20th century in Korea and the role of missionaries in shaping its religious landscape.
