Basking in the sunshine

Children stand leaning on a wall basking in the warm sunshine Thursday at Children’s Grand Park in eastern Seoul. A child giggles covering the mouth with hands, the other wearing a hat looks at the camera and another shyly smiles. The Korea Meteorological Administration said Thursday recorded the coldest weather of this fall with the lowest temperature in the morning of minus 3.9 degrees Celsius in Daegwallyeong. A huge gap in the daily temperature range is expected to continue for the time being with clear weather due to high atmospheric pressure.
