Really enjoyed this piece! I lived in Jeju-si for a time, and agree that the older parts of the city have a really unique atmosphere that's rarely if ever written about. I also laughed at the reference to the one convenience store in Gimnyeong - I used to work nearby, and suffered through a number of their cold, miserable lunchboxes.
looks and sounds like a great walk. out of curiosity, what year was this? also that gamjatang sounds perfect and definitely need it in my life. I've tried some Kimchi-jjigae after a long night and that seems to do the trick too haha.

Oh that's awesome. It's always cool when someone who has spent time in the place recognizes the details in a piece. Cheers.
Looks like a great walk after that long day I bet that chicken was fantastic. And I'm glad you got to see Hallasan.
Yeah, among the best chicken ever. Thanks for reading, Michael.
