Salt air moves like an invitation as you step out of a low-ceiling makgeolli brewery into the wide light of Gwangalli Beach, the Gwangan Bridge arching across the horizon. Dressed in hanbok—bright jeogori and flowing chima—the city shifts scale: apartment towers and neon signs soften, waves take on personality and dare you toward the shoreline.
