ABSTRACT
A lot of time had been squandered en route, but the giant clock on top of Pumin Hall revealed it was barely noon as they reached the auditorium. Even before the tickets were purchased, another big quarrel erupted between Ch'unsim and Master Yun. In fact, Master Yun thought it reasonable to assume the place was like a movie theater, where the ground-floor seats were cheaper. Armed with the esoteric knowledge, Master Yun had arrived intending to get a lower-class ticket for a seat up front, but it had turned out to be a white ticket seat that cost three times more. Based on several prior experiences, Master Yun knew the best seats for the Festival were those in the very front row next to the stage. Having relished the show, Master Yun sent Ch'unsim off home on foot, since she lived in Ch'ongjingdong.
