Gathering Dinner at The Grill 720

#2024wish We had our annual dinner at The Grill 720 at Resom Forest. This restaurant specializes in grilled beef and pork, and since we have sufficient budget for our year end party, we decided to opt for an all Korean beef meal. We ordered a total of 1.5kg of premium Korean beef to be grilled and shared out. The beef is so succulent and instantly melts in our mouth. The ambience is also very warm and cozy and everybody enjoyed the meal wholeheartedly. Price is at the higher side of 500000 won but it's a once in a while experience, so its worth the money. My wish in 2024 is to visit Switzerland.

A vacation at Jecheon, Resom Forest

#cherryblossom2024 We had our retreat at Forest Resom Resort located at Jecheon, and this is a very secluded resort located deep in the forest. The hotel is designed in a very porsch and luxurious manner which many will have a great feeling of relaxation in this place. We booked a 2 bedroom villa with a large living room and everybody really enjoyed themselves, as there are also many facilities in the resort. There is also hot spring spa available upon paying and you can have a nice soak and while enjoying scenery at the same time. This is one of the best place to enjoy and we will definitely come again.

Jeongbangsa Temple with a clear view of Cheongpung Lake.

Jeongbangsa Temple. Address: 165, Oksunbong-ro 12-gil, Susan-myeon, Jecheon, Chungcheongbuk-do. Inquiries: 043 647 7399. Founded by the monk Uisang during the Silla Dynasty in the year 662 under King Munmu. There is a wooden statue of Avalokitesvara and behind it, a painting of Buddha is drawn. Designated as Local Tangible Cultural Property No. 206. The road to the temple is narrow, prohibiting entry of large vehicles. Access by car is not easy. The view of Cheongpung Lake and the mountains from the temple is magnificent. Although it is a point for sunset viewing, staying late can be a nuisance to the temple and driving can be dangerous after dark, so it is recommended to come down early. Nearby, there is the Oksunbong Suspension Bridge and Cheongpung Land, so planning a day trip might be a good idea.

This used to be a village in the city, and there is no decent shopping mall. Since the KKONE shopping mall, there has been a large shopping mall in this area. Above the mall is the hotel, there are friends who have lived here, there are many local restaurants under the mall, to eat a few, the price is very high. The bottom of the mall is directly connected to the Shenzhen Shawei subway station, which was convenient in the past.
