✈️Travel Review:
Sitting facing the summer sea of Sokcho, sipping a refreshing float—"Ah, this is summer."
Cafe Maeumi, located right in front of the Jangsa Port sea, was a destination in itself. With its breathtaking ocean view, open space on the second and third floors, and the warm atmosphere of the adorable puppy Maeumi, it was a perfect place to recharge and take a break from your busy schedule.
📍Getting There:
From Sokcho Intercity Bus Terminal, it takes about 20 minutes.
Take city buses like bus number 1 or 9, or take a taxi for about 7,000 won.
The Jangsa Port public parking lot is right next door, making it convenient for driving.
