Ents Attack!

So we were roaming around the neighbourhood today, and came upon the most awesome sight ever! We were walking along, minding our own business, when out of the woodwork (sorry, I know it's a bad pun) came these wooden creatures that we can only describe as Ents (like from the Lord of the Rings). These sculptures are just two of a larger collection along the side of the road in Daejeon, between our apartment and the World Cup Stadium.
This was just one of the interesting things we saw today as we were out exploring our new hometown.
