On the Street of Daejeon: As mentioned earlier、This time my stay was very short, so I was hardly able to walk around town to take a photo.。So、Introducing the city of Daejeon, which was photographed while wandering around searching for festival-related galleries.。 The back alley of the Samgyossar restaurant we visited for dinner on the first day、It was also something that was just after the presidential election.、The flags were raised all over the city。 The entrance to the alley where the Samgyeopsal shop is located。Jeon Jae-hong, chairman of the festival executive committee。When I wear an apron, everyone looks cute and I feel a sense of familiarity。 There were kittens in the alley。 Daejeon's sunset。I really want to take a picture of the Y-cross.。 From the window of the hotel where you stayed。On the first day, I went straight from the airport to attend the opening reception and dinner party.、I went to bed early without even maintaining the camera.。 The second morning、Go to buy a bus ticket to the airport for the next day's flight。It was a photo of the Asahi、Isn't the image strange? No matter what I took, it was covered in gauze、It's strangely nostalgic... The national flag is here too。 After taking this cut, look at the display、The images are really weird as expected! ? Check the lens again、The oil from Samgyeopsal from last night was sticking to the lens! I wiped off the oil from the lens with the hem of my T-shirt and it looked normal.。But on the other hand, I feel that it's a little unsatisfied。...I think Samgyeopsal lenses were right in the town of Daejeon.。

Korean gourmet: I had some business in Japan over the weekend.、In the end, I stayed in Korea for two days.、In terms of time, it was only about 45 hours.。Also、I didn't eat breakfast on the second day、A total of three meals are available at the restaurant。I can't say I enjoyed Korean food at all.、They were all delicious so I'll introduce them here。 This is Samgyeopsal, which is also well known in Japan.。It was a store that was booked by the Festival Executive Committee.、A famous hidden shop in a back alley that foreign tourists can't find easily。Anyway, this is it too! That's how the meat comes out。 Cheers(Conveyor)! After eating meat, I couldn't eat any more、Mix the remaining meat and vegetables from the iron plate with kimchi or gochujang、Fried rice with finishing touches (볶음밥/pokkunpa)。It has far exceeded the capacity of the stomach、I couldn't eat breakfast the next day。 Second day of stay、While walking around looking for festival-related galleries、Gradually my stomach is getting better。I was walking down the busy area to see if there was any suitable lunch.、Anyway, there's only a samgyosar restaurant.。The Samgyeopsal shop is also next to the Samgyeopsal shop.、And across from it is Samgyeopsal。I ate samgyeopsal last night、It's also quite difficult to eat it alone。I'm getting hungry too、15There are also artist talks from time to time.、I thought I had to put something in my stomach and then I went to a shop called "착한감자탕 해장국"。If you convert the store name using translation software, it's "gentle potatoes"? It was late for lunch so、There is only one customer besides me。I can't read the menu at all、Again, with the help of translation software、I ordered a spicy pork spare rib hangover soup.。Now、What is "hangover soup"? There was also rice on the menu.、I also tried to order that、Apparently rice comes along。 so、This is what was provided。Under the soup is a rib-equipped pork.。Wear plastic gloves and hold the bones、Slurp the soup and bite into the meat。What is this! ? It's so delicious! It's three times more painful than what you imagine from the appearance、The flavor is more than three times more。I happened to be in the store but I was very pleased.。 I looked it up after returning to Japan、What is Haejanguk?、Remember the tired stomach and intestines the day after drinking alcohol、It is a soup that is effective for hangovers and nourishing and tonicating.、It was a perfect meal for my stomach on the day.。 The final supper in Korea was invited by Jeon Jae-hong, the executive committee chairman of the festival.、Enjoy high-class Korean food with the people at Kiyosato Photo Art Museum。I also looked into this after returning home.、In a cooking form called Han Jungsik、It is a traditional Korean course meal.。One after another, plates with dishes for the number of people will be served.。If you are slowing down even a little、In no time, the table is filled with food。All the dishes were delicious。
