한국 사람이지만 선생님은 너무 어려웠어요 ㅠㅜ
오히려 학생들이 더 잘해서 놀랐어요
最后，我们进行了筷子游戏。
虽然我是韩国人但对我来说，老师感到很难。我没上到学生们那么厉害。
오늘 열심히 젓가락을 연습해서
아마 모두들 손이 아플 것 같아요 ㅎ
因为今天我们努力练习使用筷子
所以下课以后，有可能我们的手好痛😂
As Busan is located down south, it is easy to get to all the other southern cities for those who enjoy travelling. Below we share with you a couple of nearby cities that you can head out to explore over the weekends.
Geoje Island & Tongyeong
Located only 1.5 hours drive away, you can easily take a day trip to Geoje Island or perhaps even a weekend away to both Geoje and Tongyeong.
The Windy Hill is one of the most popular attraction in Geoje featuring a Dutch-type windmill atop a glass-covered steep hill. Also check out Oedo-Botania, a marine botanical garden with the ocean in the background and various sculptures. Seafood lovers would find Geoje an absolute paradise especially since sliced raw fish is known to be the signature dish of Geoje. Make sure to also try 게장 [ge-jang] raw crabs marinated in soy sauce or sweet spicy chilli sauce.
A bridge connects Geoje to Tongyeong that takes less than an hour’s drive. Jangsado Sea Park is not to be missed, with a plethora of flora and fauna to explore. Another attraction to check out is the quaint Dongpirang Mural Village that has no wall left uncovered, good for photos and your social media feed. Whilst you’re in Tongyeong, make sure to try the honey bread – deep fried balls that are filled with red bean, green bean, sweet potato, or chestnut, then honey-glazed and sprinkled with sesame seeds.
Ulsan
You can easily catch the train or bus from to get to Ulsan, located a short hour ride away up north from Busan. Home to of one of the world’s largest shipbuilders, you are able to get a tour of Hyundai Heavy Industries whilst in Ulsan.
Other highlights you are able to check out whilst in Ulsan include Ulsan Grand Park, Daewangam Park, Jangsaengpo Whale Museum, Taehwa River Grand Park, Ulsan Museum, Paraeso Falls, Ganjeolgot Cape, Bangudae Cliff, Seoknamsa Temple and Hongryu Falls In Sinbulsan Mountain.
Gyeongju
Home to a remarkable number of historical sites from the Silla Kingdom, you will find many giant tombs around – they are the resting place of kings and nobles. Many visit Gyeongju to visit the Bulguksa Temple, designated UNESCO World Heritage site followed by Seokguram Grotto, which is also a must visit as it contains the famous Bonjon statue, one of Korea’s national treasure.
It is also recommended to then catch the sunset at Cheomsongdae Observatory then head to the beautiful man-made Anapji Pond at night, when it beautifully reflects the orange lights from the palace building.
Jeju Island
A short 50-minutes plane ride away from Busan, the island’s beautiful beaches, lush countryside, and seaside hotels are designed for a good relaxing weekend trip. There are plenty to do on the island, and whilst a weekend trip away may not suffice, you can always return again. Those who prefer to be active can hike up Hallasan, South Korea’s highest mountain, or UNESCO World Heritage Sites Seongsan Ilchul-bong.
Jeju Island is also a nature’s paradise with pristine beaches and breathtaking waterfalls namely the Jeongbang, Cheonjeyeon and Cheonjiyeon Falls. It is also worth checking out yet another UNESCO site for huge lava tubes at Manjanggul Cave. If you’re a fan of tea, the O’Solluc Green Tea farm is also worth checking out.
There are heaps to do at Jeju and perhaps just a weekend away would not cut it, but you can always fly back in to Jeju given its close proximity to Busan.
There are plenty of other cities to the south of Korea that one can go on weekend trips, such as Daegu, Suncheon, Jinju, Namhae, Boseong, and Gwangju, just to name a few. But for those who need to make a quick visa run to extend your stay in South Korea, we’ve listed Japan as one of our Top 5 weekend trip getaway destination from Busan.
Japan – Tsushima Island or Fukuoka
Both Tsushima Island and Fukuoka are the nearest from Busan for those wanting a short trip out of the country.
You can catch the 1.5 hour ferry ride to Tsushima Island, spend the day indulging in some Japanese local food then come back in the evening. If you’re up for a weekend away, you can get to Fukuoka either by ferry or plane.
Every city offer their specific local delicacy and of course, Busan is also no different. Below we share with you the must-eats that best represents Busan.

Korean Pancake with Squid (찌짐 & 오징어)

You’re supposed to mix a bit of the pancake with the spicy vegetable mixure as shown on the picture on the left. This is a dish only available in Busan and can be found at the street food stalls in Nampo-dong.
Busan, located along the beautiful coastline, is the second largest city in South Korea and has a relaxing and laidback holiday-resort-city vibe to it, with beautiful beaches, making Busan a popular summer tourist spot for both tourists and locals alike.

You will find the beach covered with beach umbrellas from end-to-end for those wanting to enjoy some beachside relaxation, those wanting a bit more of an adrenaline rush enjoy the water sports such as jet-skiiing and banana boat rides.
Gwangalli Beach
Whilst Haeundae may be the most popular beach, Gwangalli beach is not too far behind especially with the majestic Gwangan Bridge that spans across the sea.

On the right edge of the beach facing the ocean, there is also Gudeokpo Café Street where café-goers are able to enjoy their hand-drip coffee and desserts with the view of the ocean.
Dadaepo Beach
The sunset at Dadaepo is so magnificient that it attracts many amateur photogprahers who want to capture the beautiful sunset, whilst many families visit Dadaepo to enjoy the mud flats.
