Korean Moving House...(6 Dec 07)

Having stayed in Korea for almost coming to 9months, this is one of the special encountered I had... On 6 Dec 07, a day after my final term exams, my boarding house auntie moved from her old house to live in the same building as our boarding house.


At 1st, I was still wondering how do korean moved house as most of their 5-6 storey buildings do not have elevator... I was thinking perhaps they would hire professional home movers to move their huge furnitures etc one by one up the narrow staircases. But it still ponders me as how can these home movers move up a queen or king size bed or a piano etc...



So all these questions in my head were finally answered on 6 Dec when my boarding house auntie moved to stay on the 4 storey of our boarding house. What they do is hire a professional home movers (as wat I had guessed) . But these professional home movers are different from those we had seen in Singapore...



They were equipped with a special lift which is attached to their lorry. This lift helps to transport furniture etc up... This lift can go up as high as 5-6 storey. I was totally amazed by this hence when I returned home from school on 6 Dec, I ran back to my room to get my camera to snap a few photos and some videos....

Personally I felt so amazing by this act but still I felt that its kind of dangerous... PErhaps its the Singapore KS (Kia si) instinct?


I guess pictures and videos speak a thousand words... So enjoy watching....
