The Waves of the East Coast and the Serenity of Daejeon: Walking Different Paths

Leaving Seoul unveils a different side of Korea. The fierce waves of the East Coast and the composed urban charm of Daejeon—two contrasting landscapes offer travelers a unique sense of relaxation.

🌅 Walking Along the Coast: Donghae, Gangneung, Samcheok
The East Coast is a destination that showcases different scenery with each season. From the sunrise at Jeongdongjin, the romantic sea train in Gangneung, to the quiet harbor villages of Samcheok—just walking along the blue horizon for a day can brighten your heart. The breeze by the sea momentarily halts the rush of daily life. 🌬️🚃🌊

🌳 A Pause in the Quiet City: Daejeon
Daejeon remains consistently gentle, even without special mentions as a travel destination. Strolling through Hanbat Arboretum, cycling along Daecheong Lake, and spending quiet moments at the Science Museum and Expo Park naturally imbue a sense of urban leisure. A city that feels more comfortable because it’s not crowded, offering a solid sense of calm. 🪵📚🚴♀️
