These days, when a chilly breeze tickles the skin, there is a place I find myself missing: Jeongdong-gil in Jung-gu, Seoul. As you walk along the Deoksugung(Palace) stone wall path, traces of modern history emerge from amidst the autumn leaves that have begun to turn red. I rushed over at the news that the 27th…
Whenever I land at Jeju Airport, my heart always feels rushed. Leaving the crowded tourist spots behind, this time I headed to Hwabuk-idong, Jeju-si. As soon as I stepped into Hwabuk-pogu (Hwabuk Port), the first things I felt were the salty scent of the sea and a heavy breeze that tickled my cheeks. This place is the…
The landscape brushing past the window has begun to take on a deep autumn hue. As someone who particularly loves autumn, I visit Cheongdo, Gyeongsangbuk-do, around this time every year when the sweet scent of persimmons fills the air. Autumn in Cheongdo, famous for its seedless persimmons called 'Bansi', is truly…
I visited Iho Tewoo Beach (Iho Tewoo Haesuyokjang) just as the heat of the day began to fade. The reason I felt particularly excited today at this place, where the red and white horse-shaped lighthouses stand side by side, is that the 2025 Jeju Hanjan Woori-sul Festival was taking place. A breeze mixed with the scent…
Late autumn, when you start to pull your collar tight, the road to Hoengseong(Hoengseong) had a particularly romantic view outside the car window. The yellow ginkgo leaves and red maple leaves displayed by the rolling deep mountains of Gangwon-do(Gangwon-do) made my heart flutter before I even reached the destination.…
On an afternoon bathed in the warm sunlight of Jungmun, the area around 93, Jungmun Gwangwang-ro (Jungmun Tourist Road), Seogwipo-si, was filled with a different kind of energy than usual. I hurried my steps at the news that the '2025 Jeju Food Fair with Beer Festival' was taking place. As soon as I entered the venue,…
Instead of the distinct salty sea breeze I usually feel upon landing at Jeju Airport, today, a sense of excitement mixed with the smell of paper seemed to lead the way. My steps were headed toward Udang Library (Udang Doseogwan), located at the foot of Sarabong (Sarabong Peak) in Geonip-dong (Geonip-dong), Jeju City.…
The streets of Hongdae, which I pass by every day, were somehow filled with a calmer and more affectionate atmosphere than usual. As I approached the Hyosung Harrington Tower in Seogyo-dong, a pleasant fragrance that seemed to be a mixture of ink and old paper brushed against the tip of my nose. I set off on my…
For the first time in a while, I tightened my hiking boots and stepped out of the house. Instead of the city noise I would usually rush past, I decided to take a special walk today. Heading to the site of the 2025 Hangang Mountain Trekking (2nd round), near 250-12 Yongmasan-ro, Jungnang-gu, Seoul, the bitter yet fresh…
Every August, the red brick building at 251 Tongil-ro, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, stands out with more clarity in that familiar spot. Perhaps because this year marks the very special 80th anniversary of liberation, the air surrounding the Seodaemun Prison History Hall (Seodaemunhyeongmuso Yeoksagwan) felt different.…
