Revisit Korea 2011: Good Morning Busan! Hello Tong Yeong City!

03.14.2012 – It was still cold at 6AM and it was eerily silent. My first day in Busan Korea was not pleasant and I was running down the clock to be ready because our trip did not stop here. It was one of those days I wanted to have more time on my hands. Unfortunately time was not on my side as I set up my things prepared to pack again for what to be the road trip to TongYeong City. They say it’s a province and whenever that word came into my mind I was thinking LOTS of trees and mountain the kind of wilderness that you’ll try to survive for the next twelve or thirteen days.

Revisit Korea 2011: The Place Called Busan Station.

03.13.2012 – The arrival at Busan was a rough one and I was a cranky passenger trying to get my bearings straight as the plane made its decent. As I step out of the plane the cold was mild comparing it already to Baguio’s weather and I wasn’t in that place since the 1990s. Until the cold had caught on me wearing only the casual wear and the adidas jacket that was thick enough for tropical weather that can only make you warm while you reach Tagaytay. The airport bus or what they call a limousine took us to the main airport.

A View of the Road Travels in Korea.

03.14.2011 - Road travel from Busan to the city of Tongyeong took four hours to get there. I slept mostly after a cab ride to a limousine, which is actually a bus to another cab. The weather is not that cold in the mid-day, and i'm still trying to get familiarize with the place. SAMHO a huge ship yard located at Donam-dong and Kyungsangham in Tongyeoung is one of Korea's industrial business area. Seeing these massive ships being assembled like LEGO is quite astonishing.

The Night Life at Busan Station in Korea.

03.13.2011 - Arriving Sunday night at Busan station in Korea. A first timer to travel to this interesting country. Its where all the Super Juniors and Wonder Girls came from. Though I would admit I'm more interested in Japanese Pop Culture this place has something to offer, which I have to find out in the next few days. Upon setting foot at the airport a fairly cold breeze just hit me. The climate is not that cold anymore as I thought, but still its colder than Baguio. The night life is much alive and the time here is an hour ahead of Manila.
