Cheongpyeong Summer Beach Bonanza 2016 () | Just before winter set in, we set our sights on Gapyeong County for a day and a half of fun and folly. The locations included a silk factory, temples, a factory, hotel resort under construction, train station, a bridge and a spa. |
New Year Monster Hunt (2/2/2019) | We rang in the Lunar New Year with a full long weekend of activities. Day 1: We visited active demolition at Euljiro, where one member of our group ran into an evictee protester she had interviewed and he gave us a tour of some of the remaining machine shops. Then we went to Ahyeon-dong where a hired goon chased after us on a scooter, and then hit a rooftop in Sinchon and got food. Day 2: Despite a light rain, we risked the Host Tunnel, taking precautions such as staying mobile and being aware where water would come from. Day 3: I went alone out to Baedari, Incheon, to see the urban renewal happening there at a historic community. Day 4: We visited Camp Howze, a former USFK base. |
