BORYEONG, South Korea (Reuters Life!) - For nine days of dirty fun, a quaint South Korean coastal city paints the town a dull shade of mud.

  

 
 

Boryeong says its mud has special powers to refresh the skin and soothe the soul. Last Saturday (July 12) saw the start of its 11th annual Mud Festival, which attracts about 2 million people to the city of a little more than 100,000 located about 190 km (120 miles) southwest of Seoul.
