붉은 노을이 넘실대는, 아름다운 서울 중구

  서울의 중심, 서울 중구는 특히 노을이 예쁜 것 같다. 남산타워를 끼고 태양이 산을 넘어가면서, 하늘을 온통 오렌지색으로 채운다. 그러면 도시 전체가 마치 금색으로 빛이 나는 진풍경을 볼 수 있다. 남산, 남산타워, 그리고 갖가지 대기업 본사들,  남대문, 한양도성, 해방촌 등등 잊혀져 가는 것과 새로운 것이 공존하는 이 도시는 보는 사람으로 하여금 많은 생각을 들게 한다. 조선시대부터 지금까지, 서울의 과거와 현재가 남아있기 때문이다. 서울 중구는 일단 지대가 높기도 하고,  그 와중에 시내 전체를 조망할 수 있는 뷰 포인트가 곳곳에 있다. 그 덕에 역사적인 랜드마크와 현대적인 고층빌딩이 같은 하늘 아래에서 어우러져 있는 모습, 그리고 하늘이 붉게 물들며 도시 전체의 색이 변하는 경외로운 광경을 즐길 수 있는 곳이다.

안성 금광호수 뷰 맛집, 더 뷰

  안성은 사람이 많이 살지 않는다. 아무래도 농업도시이기 때문인 것 같다. 대조적으로 바로 옆에 붙어있는 평택은 반도체 단지 때문에 사람이 많다. 하지만 그렇기 때문에 나는 안성이 좋다. 한적하고, 뷰 좋은 곳이 많기 때문이다. 금광호수 바로 앞에 있는 이 위치선정 뛰어난 식당의 이름은, 더 뷰. 이름조차 VIEW다. 함께 동행했던 안성 토착 주민의 말에 의하면 금광면은 실제 금광이 있었어서 그 이름이 유래했다고 하는데, 역사적 사실에 기반한 말인지는 모르겠다. 식당 내부에 들어가면 뷰가 이렇다. 핸드폰으로 찍은 사진이라 그 느낌이 잘 안살아나는데 실제 현장에서는 더욱 운치가 있다. 호수를 정말 바로 앞에 두고 밥을 먹는 기분이란... 야외 테라스에도 이렇게 살짜쿵 나가볼 수 있다. 그리고 식당 아래에도 야외 테이블들과 사진촬영용 계단도 있다. 뷰만 맛집이냐? 점심도 맛있다. 파스타도 스테이크도 화덕피자도 맛있다.

Emotional Turmoil: BTS Enlists as South Korea Edges Closer to War

  Hello, ARMY! I'm sure you've heard the news by now: BTS members are enlisting in the military one by one. It's a sad and difficult time for us, but we have to respect their decision and support them as much as we can. As you may know, South Korea requires all able-bodied men to serve in the military for 18 to 21 months before they turn 30. BTS members are no exception, even though they have contributed so much to the country's culture and economy. They have decided to fulfill their duty as citizens and role models. The first member to enlist was Jin, who reported for duty in December 2022, after releasing his solo album. He was followed by J-Hope, who entered the boot camp in April 2023, with a heartfelt message to the fans. The other members will join them one by one in the coming years, according to their individual plans. We will miss them terribly, but we have to remember that this is not goodbye.
