AG17. Daejin Beach ⇔ Blueroad Course C Summer memories that sing of the East Sea - Daejin Beach Daejin Beach has no superfluousness. Daejinhang Port, Daejin Village and a recently formed waterside park. It is a natural beach with pine trees and a wide seashore. Daejin Beach is full of comfort and leisure. Daejin Beach is one of the top three beaches in Yeongdeok. The natural sand banks and white sand make the beach even more special. The beach is the background for Lee Munyeol's "Winter That Year" and "Portrait of Youth". The young man in the novel is based on himself. He wanders and agonizes in his younger days and the wandering ends here. The writer from Yeongyang climbed Ultijae and got his act together. He went on to become a great writer. Songcheon is a pride of Daejin Beach. It flows along the beach with beauty. Songcheon flows from the Taebaek Mountains and Ultijae to the ocean. The clean freshwater of Songcheon provides a bath like a natural shower. Maybe Mt. Sangdaesan protects the ocean to keep it clean as it looks down on it. This place is called Gwaneodae because you can see the fish in the clear water. There is an unusual myth here. A young woman who waited for her husband's fishing boat to return died at Gwaneodae. It is said the woman's form turned into the mountain. A myth is just a myth, but Gwaneodae is truly beautiful. Mokeun Lee Saek who lived in the neighboring village of Goesi-ri enjoyed coming here. Here is a part of "Gwaneodaebu" written by him. One sky above. One water below. The vast space between. How far apart are they? Below the water is calm. All sorts of fish are playing there. Some are the same, some are different. They swim around freely waving their tails. To think about Master Lim's baits, I couldn't dream of it. It wasn't just Lee Saek who wrote poems about this place. I'm sure you can imagine why now that you've seen it for yourself.
