A Calm Trip to Ulsan, Heading to Whale Village

I came to Ulsan and met my younger colleague from Yangdeok after a long time.

I’m a driver who rides around in a Yangkke, but my younger colleague from Yangdeok got their driver’s license later than I did.

In the past, we used to go for drives in a Yangkke, but now we’ve put all that aside and just ride around in a Yangkke car.

The Yang driver came rushing to our place through the snow, and said they hadn’t eaten lunch yet, but I had already eaten lunch at 11 o’clock.

Still, I was hungry, so we went to the Homeplus food court and ate something tasty. I ordered cold buckwheat noodles and that bulgogi iron plate bibimbap, and ate them little by little and deliciously.

But at Homeplus, they bring the food.

They also serve it directly instead of having you carry it back yourself. It looks like Whale Village, which I visited when I wasn’t around and rode in the Yang driver’s car, was also going smoothly.

Yangki has visited there three times so far.

Today, because of the weather, we went once more.

But the admission fee is 1 won per person.

First of all, once you go in, it’s set up like a filming set that brings back old memories, but it’s not as good as the Suncheon filming set.

I think it would be better if it were decorated a bit more.

The elementary school is decorated a little.

I’m not sure about social studies, but I’m remembering Bbareun Saenghwal, and it makes me think of Jeong-seo and Hee-ji-ni competing for first and second place as model students, and their nostalgic lunchboxes.

But in our time, there was school lunch, so that must be from our parents’ generation.

This is a whale being caught, since we came to Whale Village.

We had to at least eat some whale bread, so Yangki told us to go buy it.

I sent in a bread shuttle request, and Yangki’s older sister brought it.

I went to Ilsan and ate this, and it was delicious.

It was soft, and there was a little chocolate-like filling inside, and it was really tasty.

It looks like the whole Whale Village is drawn here.

The whale drawn at the bottom wasn’t something Blogger Seojeong-i planned to take a picture of, but non-blogger Hee-jin-i told me to take it, so I did.

This means that if you go into a whale’s mouth, you’ll be eaten. That’s how big and huge my mouth is. If you look closely at the top of the photo, you can see one of my eyes looking a bit off, and if you look closely at the very bottom, my eyes are closed.

Still, it came out somewhat naturally, so I sat in the whale’s tail spot, but it was really hot and I sweated a ton.

My face may be worn out, but when I go to the restroom, I have to straighten the mirror to become blogger-like. After touring Whale Village for an hour, Hee-jin and I wondered where we should go next. We thought about it and then went to Ilsan for a drive.

When we arrived in Ilsan, I came to Ilsan Jing after a long time, and the water was really clean. Hee-jin took out the mat from the car, and I tried really hard to keep it from blowing away even when the wind was strong.

There was nothing we could do, but even just looking at the hair visible in the photo, you can tell how greasy and clumped together it was.

I wasn’t really hungry, but I was hungry, and the Japanese ramen I ate with Yangki was delicious. I had curry ramen, and Hee-jin ate something else. What was it again? I can’t remember. Anyway, Hee-jin was going to treat us to dinner, and we were debating whether to eat and then watch a movie. But Yangki paid for the movie, so I bought dinner. I did it because I have a conscience. On the way from Ilsan back to Samsan, Kitty was so cute. The movie we watched was Inside Out. I didn’t even know this movie existed, but Yangki said it was fun, so I watched it, and it was a really absurd and funny movie. What was the opening again? It was like a musical, with Joy and Sadness appearing alternately. And Bing Bong came out too. After the movie was over, they took me back to my place.

They did. I was grateful both when I took the shuttle and when I was driven around. Today, it feels like we accomplished a lot in a short amount of time.
