I hope to go there in 2025, although am unable to bike. Your story made what I knew about Korea warmer, more friendly, etc. But behind the charms lies harsh realities of competition, the difficulty of raising a family, etc. Thank you. The charm and warmth of this country was evident.

Your sentiments are almost identical to ours from the first JTE last year, even some of your photos are taken of the same en route sights as ours. Thank you for educating us on the symbolism of the ‘gachi’ – a somewhat different view of the bird than that generally held in Europe.
