Anyway, the event venue is really mushroom-here-mushroom-there-mushroom-everywhere.
Even the express bus bus-stop and information booth are mushrooms!
These are are famous Songyi mushrooms that cost around SGD250 for a small box.. And the wine made from mushrooms! They walked around the event venue and saw this..
[video coming soon]
It's only in Korea!
The trio didn't know that in order to join the trip to go to the mountains to pick the precious mushrooms, they had to register online prior to the event. After that, the trio bumped into the organizers and the organizers asked if they would like to go on a pear-picking trip instead. The trio thought that it was better than nothing, so they gladly took up the offer (and paid 10000W each for it).
At the pear farm, they joined this tour group from Singapore. It was really strange yet familiar to be hearing that so unique singlish again. And that so Singaporean-auntie voices. Ha. Anyway, the pears were huge and they each got to bring home (I mean dorm) 2.
The mega-cang (spring onion? leek?) that Zixu loathes. Mwahahaha~
Not wanting to waste time doing nothing since they had already bought return tickets back to Seoul a good 5 hours later, they asked the organizers who happen to be workers in the tourism board for the city of Yangyang to suggest some places they could go. Apparently, there is a famous temple in the region, and the organizers kindly drove them to the temple.
The temple sits on the hill and at the peak stands a tall statue of the goddess of mercy and it overlooks the ocean. It was Geraldine's 1st time looking at a horizon without boats, ships, cranes or another country. (Think Singapore.)
