Shot in Seoul, South Korea. This is one of my earlier photos in which I am most proud of taking. When I first began taking photography at night in the rain, I would wander the streets looking for scenes that people don't usually get to see. The lights and reflections in the rain drew me to take out my camera during the rain and snow.

I came across this scene and I knew there was something there, the only thing missing was the human element, so I waited patiently for a few minutes. Suddenly these office workers came out and walked down the alleyway. It is not uncommon for co-workers to go out and drink or have dinner right after work, and in this case, the image came out quite beautifully.

Jongro is an area in Seoul among many skyscrapers and offices. You can see what the suits do after hours but they also tend to stay drinking all night despite working the next day. Restaurants in Seoul even let you stay sleeping since many of them stay open until morning.
