Artists in NYC


When I came to New York a few years ago, it seems interesting that many amateur artists (musicians, singers and other performers) perform freely in subway station or in the street in NYC. It was so fresh and looks romantic because It was rare to see that kind of performance in the street or subway in my country, South Korea.(I could see it only in a few of artist's street...)


And recently, I saw one interesting pianist was performing at Union Square subway station when I was waiting for the train. I still wonder how he could move that piano under the subway station. Weird and Amazing!


Anyway, I love NY for not only it resembles my hometown, Seoul (crowded,busy and exciting..) but also i can see this full of romantic artists everywhere I go...

  1. Bo, it is romantic but only at a first glance...Sooo many of these guys are struggling to pay their bills, its not even funny...
    Plus, it is very hard to keep a relationship with an artist/actress (any actors/artists sorry for generalization)
    By the way, I read somewhere that Seoul had highest population IQ on average among other major capitals in the world...(Kim Ung-Yong was tested well above 200)... I would assume that you are of those people Bo :)
