little update about my life @ Busan ~

Sorry  for missing in action for quite some times..hehe 

Was too busy with the exams, assignment and of course the research paper.What to do ,as a student we can’t escape from all these …

So here is some update my life at the Busan city for the past few months :

  • Igidae (이기대 )二妓台

         It was 5th May , children day holiday here in Korea.So went to Igidae with Su Lin , Xiao Wei , Beelie and Katie. Igidae  is a park surrounded by sea ,cliff and mountain. It used to be restricted area for military purpose and has been just opened to the public since 1993.

if happen you able to read “hanja” you must be wondering why this place is named as “二妓台" .yes it mean place for 2 Prostitutes. This is due to there are two Prostitutes sacrificed their life to hug Japanese generals and jump into the sea which later cause Japanese to surrender.

some pictures of the nice view of igidae .
