The Legend of Baekdo in Yeosu

The sea, as always, breathes its ancient blue breath, lifting massive stone pillars into its embrace.

Sharp cliffs, as if honed by a blade, rise like spears tearing through the sky. An army of silence stands unyielding against the fierce waves.

Sunlight crowns the rocks with a blazing golden diadem, while waves, like enraged steeds, charge forward, scattering their white manes.

From afar, it appears as if a thousand folding screens are layered upon one another. As you draw closer, it reveals gaps as if the divine gates are opening.

These islands are a scripture of stone, holding myths and legends, immortal verses etched by time.

Before them, I am but a dot, a shadow. Yet, my soul is carried by the blue waves, singing in harmony with the islands' silence.
