Seoul Business Signs

Just a few signs that caught my eye in South Korea.


1. An unusual name for a furniture store. For those who may not be familiar with "Lorum Ipsum", the following is from Wikipedia

Lorem ipsum is a dummy or placeholder text commonly used in graphic design, publishing, and web development. Its purpose is to permit a page layout to be designed, independently of the copy that will subsequently populate it, or to demonstrate various fonts of a typeface without meaningful text that could be distracting. Lorem ipsum is typically a corrupted version of De finibus bonorum et malorum, a 1st-century BCE text by the Roman statesman and philosopher Cicero, with words altered, added, and removed to make it nonsensical and improper Latin

2. I don't know whether they are referring the customers or the menu.

3.

4. Similar to other Asian cities I think, people selling the same merchandise seem to group together. I managed to stay away from this one as I've spent too much on camera gear already

Nice selection. I wonder if there is a real 'Lorem Ipsum' who hates filling in forms and hates his parents...

[wigz]

Thanks Alan. I'd never thought of using it as a name, but anything goes for names these days.

Great photos and what a great idea having the same merchandise sold on the same street, what a time saver.

[wigz]

Thanks Sharon. Makes it easy to shop around for the best deal

Thanks LC

Very unusual titles Alan. I use Lorem Ipsum often for web design and poster creation. It saves a lot of time in the design process.

Thanks Isac, yes, it’s useful to easily provide normal looking text without meaningful content distracting from the overall appearance.
