Dear James
I got your photos.
Now I can see that you're very handsome and tall with lots of friends.
My classmates, especially the girls, want to say hello to you.
Anyway I wonder if my presents arrived in Austria.
If they arrived, I think your a little bit surprised at those masks.
If not, then you can expect some Korean Traditional Masks called "Ha-hwae Tal".
They are the most famous Korean traditional products.
Everyone in Korea knows what these masks are.
They were and still are worn when people perform mask dances
or at a Korean Opera in a small town named "Ha-hwae Ma-uel"-.
I wonder if this explanation can mean what I want to tell you.
In that small town,
they preserve Korean Traditions including traditional life and traditional products.
There is an interesting story about the masks you received ( or will receive).
There was really bad disease in that town a long, long time ago.
When one man slept, a fairy appeared in his dream.
It said that the man had to make some masks to protect the towns people
from the disease and that no one could see what he was making.
The man began making masks, but
then a woman who was curious about the man's work tried to see what he was making.
Then lightening struck the man and killed him and his last mask remains incomplete
(it doesn't have a chin).
I want to see your happy face
when you have those masks that represent my friendship towards you.
Please notify me when you get my gift or if you already have it.
I wish you many happy school days. Bye.
with best regards,
Young-sam
