A low sun cuts across the East Sea as the tour bus winds toward Uljin, the coastline opening like a map. The first stop, a glass‑walled skyrail, lifts visitors over the cape and the sea smells of salt and warmed rock. Later, the route eases into a calm café, a hands‑on ocean museum and the angular cove known locally as Heart Beach — where waves and stone shape a momentary heart against the shore.
