2008年5月27日，在韓國(guó)的一次考察將扈魯?shù)氖詹匮芯恳曇昂桶l(fā)展方向拓展至海外。在韓國(guó)民俗村里，展示著各式各樣的葫蘆制品，有農(nóng)耕時(shí)期的器皿，有小農(nóng)經(jīng)濟(jì)時(shí)代的用具，這些都是珍貴的、有特殊意義的葫蘆，并不對(duì)外出售，其中一組裝種子的葫蘆器皿引起了扈魯?shù)母裢庾⒁?。?zhí)著的扈魯一次次找到這組葫蘆器皿的主人——一位白發(fā)的韓國(guó)老人，表達(dá)自己對(duì)這些葫蘆的喜愛(ài)之情和對(duì)這些葫蘆中所蘊(yùn)含文化的研究興趣。由于語(yǔ)言不通，扈魯只能用夸張的肢體語(yǔ)言表達(dá)自己的想法，惹得老人捧腹不已。那一刻扈魯突然發(fā)現(xiàn)，小小的葫蘆讓兩個(gè)不同國(guó)度的人跨越了文化的障礙，消除了彼此的陌生感。最終，扈魯?shù)牟恍概蛨?jiān)持感動(dòng)了那位老人，以高價(jià)買(mǎi)到了在韓國(guó)農(nóng)耕文化中發(fā)揮重要作用的“葫蘆器皿”一套。扈魯又走進(jìn)一個(gè)鐵匠鋪，一個(gè)大水瓢引起了他的注意，他手持水瓢，環(huán)視鐵匠鋪內(nèi)的陳設(shè)，聯(lián)想到他所創(chuàng)建葫蘆博物館內(nèi)的鐵匠爐，感慨萬(wàn)千，中韓兩國(guó)一衣帶水，民俗文化、葫蘆文化淵源流長(zhǎng)。就在這次參觀采風(fēng)即將結(jié)束時(shí)，扈魯在民俗村一文創(chuàng)商店里驚喜發(fā)現(xiàn)了用葫蘆制作的臺(tái)燈，他毫不猶豫把它收藏帶回了中國(guó)。
