English/Domestic Trip

The food trip within a day(In Incheon Chinatown & Wolmido island)

 

 

 

 

 This essay had done character's name to anonymity following personal information protection.(Except famous people and foreigners.)

 

 

 

 On a day in July, my quite close friend Joshua contacted me.

 He was gonna go to Busan but because of his injury of right leg, he had changed his trip within day to Incheon.

 He suggsted me to accompany with himself to the trip.

 I thought about that, then I accepted his suggestion.

 

 

 The trip plan was Incheon Chinatown->Wolmi island, then coming back home.

 

 

 On the travel day, at 10:30 A.M., I met him at Suwon station.

 As we met, we broke time with a cup of coffee, then we boarded metro to Incheon station.

 His leg was healed well but he seemed still uncomfortable at his leg to stand rightly and walk.

 

 

 While we went to Incheon station, we talked diverse story and played the game 'Marble for Everyone'.

 The result was just all my lost. :(

 

 

 When it was coming the noon, we arrived in Incheon.

 At opposite site, there was the Chinatown.

 Before crossed to the Chinatown, we went into the tourist center and checked the ship time.

 The ship time was every 2 hours and the consultant told us to come to the center in advance of 30 minutes the departure time.

 

 

 We were supposed to board ship at 4:00 P.M..

 And we went to the Chinese restaurant 'Gonghuachun(公和春)' to eat black noodles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 At the restaurant, people were lining up and waiting.

 How famous is the jajangmien of Gonghuachun?

 Well, I can learn after try it. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 While waiting, a photo of Joshua! V

 He gave off his sunglass force. lol

 He is so scaring but so kind and good guy :)

 

 

 In 10 minutes after waited, we were escorted to the 4th floor by the staff.

 We got the table by staff's escort, and looked into the menu.

 The standard Jajangmien cost \ 5,000, whileas, the traditional Jajangmien cost \ 10,000 per person.

 Gosh!! Why is the traditional jajangmien so expensive how delicious?

 But we were to order the Jajangmien cuz we would seem to regret if we didn't eat it.

 Our lunch was 2 Gonghuachun Jajangmiens and a sweet and sour pork.(so called S&S pork)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The traditional Jajangmien's sauce was a delicious flavour.

 Against standard Jajangmiens, the traditional Jajangmien was no almost greasy and tasted cool because of the seafood garnish.

 The jajangmien included fried bean curd, and tasted that my preferable hot flavour because of the some chills

 

 

 The S&S pork's sauce didn't tasted sweet and tasted sour.

 But the flesh was same with standard Chinese restaurant's one.

 The best s&s pork is HongKong Chinese restaurant's one.

 Last june, I had ever visited there with Katrina and Alex.

 The pork flesh was soft so I think the s&s pork is the best one in my life.

 (So, I still appreciate Katrina who showed me the restaurant.)

 

 

 After finished the lunch, Joshua wanted to try the empty inside bread and mooncake.

 Before we visited the Jajangmien museum, we bought mooncakes and breads empty inside.

 Then we tried the Hwadeok dumplings which is the local traditional food.

 The inside empty bread tasted crunchy and sweet. the flavour was so addictive.

 We were to eat the mooncake at home with respective family.

 The traditional dumplings were almost same with standard one except that the figure was different from standard one.

 At the store, there was holding certificate photos of Ahn Chulsoo who was once candidate for Korean president on here and there.

 

 

 Next, we went to the Jajangmien museum.

 There was previous Gonghuachun restaurant once.

 The entrance fee was so cheap as \ 1,700 in spite of the package one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 When entered the museum, I seemed to release.

 The first, figure of making the Jajangmien at the kitchen.

 After I asked a staff whether photography is available or not, we took photos with Joshua. of course, also weird photos. lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Then we went up to 2nd floor.

 On 2nd floor, there was exhibited about history of Jajangmiens.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Approximately, after finished sightseeing, we went to a cafe to break time with tea.

 

 

 The cafe offered special teas.

 Chinese milk tea(Zenjunai tea), the wellbeing plum tea(Mixed plum and oriental medicines).

 Joshua ordered the milk tea and I ordered the plum tea.

 The milk tea tasted bland for me but the plum tea made me released from the fatigue.

 

 

 After the quick tea time, then Incheon modern architecture exhibition.

 There was not so special except that there is a rubbing.

 After sightseeing for 5 minutes, we moved to the open port museum.

 

 

 There was an attraction by the optical illusion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 As finished sightseeing, we went back to the station.

 We went to the tourist center and were gonna the ship tickets but the ticket was sold. :(

 Despite on weekday, there was many people.

 Inconvenient though it is, we were to go to Wolmido by the taxi.

 It cost about \ 3,000 from Incheon station to Wolmido island.

 

 

 As we got off at Wolmido, there was the amusement park.

 Viking, Bumper car, and merry-go-round, and so on.

 While we stopped at there, we were to ride the Viking.

 Joshua said the Viking of Wolmido is the famous ride.

 

 

 The viking went up to the fright height by the scaring velocity.

 Of course, we rode at the very last. but when we were dropped from the peak, we were scared as if we seemed to die. it was repeated over and over again.

 Every on peak, we shouted for help.

 

 

 When the Viking was ended working, we barely seemed alive.

 The viking was more exciting than Everland's, Lotte world's one.

 I could understand why it was notable.

 But I will not ride it again!

 

 

 After looked around the park, we walked along the coast.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Despite the cool wind, because of the high humidity, it was so hot and humid.

 But there was many people.

 Was it so because of the vacation season?

 Especially, there was many visitors with couple or family as an unit.

 On that time, I had just remembered on the time that I teased singles while I enjoyed the cherry blossom viewing with Katrina.

 

 

 How many did we walk....?

 Because of Joshua's hurted leg, he was all exhausted.

 So we finished the sightseeing at Wolmido, and we went to the bistro for spicy chicken directly.

 

 

 Before went to the bistro, we stopped by at the 6.25 Korean war museum and Sinpo international market.

 

 

 OMG!!

 The Sinpo bistro that we were gonna was on holiday.

 We obliged to go to the bistro beside the Sinpo.

 Is it a cow instead of a horse? LOL

 At the bistro, many people lined up and the line was so long.

 How famous the bistro was....!!

 

 

 By the way, the side lining up was for taking out and people eating inside might just go into there.

 Damn!! Give us back the time!! LOL

 

 

 The spicy chicken was hotter than I thought.

 It seemed to burn on my tongue.

 And cuz I had already been full with Jajangmien, S&S pork, Hwadeok dumpling,and bread empty inside, I couldn't eat the chicken a lot.

 On this day, I ate so much. lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Before the sunset, we were ready to come back home.

 Joshua seemed not so good.

 He looked like so tired.

 We promised to visit there again and left Incheon.

 

 

 See you later, Incheon!

 

 

 

 Review

 

 

 At the Chinatown of Incheon, there was so exotic and many oversea Chinese.

 And go up onto the hill and you can see Chinese restaurants for Jajangmien.

 Especially, Gonghuachun(公和春) is famous as the most delicious Jajangmien.

 The taste is a ever delicious flavour that made me thumb up naturally.

 The traditional Jajangmien of Gonghuachun has the worth over \ 10,000.

 

 The Hwadeok dumpling offer diverse spice and so big. but no special except those.

 I'd like to recommend only the curious to try but I'd not like so.

 

 The Jajangmien museum, which explain about history of the Jajangmien well.

 The fee is about \ 1,000 if you see only the museum.

 Do you wonder history of Jajangmien?

 If so, \ 1,000 plz!! :P

 You will lose nothing at least even if you visit there.

 

 Amusement park of Wolmido is same with Woncheon park of Suwon.

 There is gathered diverse rides, Sushi restaurants, and motels.

 There is a good place to visit for loving couples.

 I'd like to recommend the curious and brave to ride the Viking.

 You will say only 'awesome!'

 

 

 What you need to do at the Chinatown and Wolmido

 

 1. Eat the traditional Jajangmien at the Gonghuachun.

 2. Visit the Jajangmien museum.

 3. Ride the Viking at the park of Wolmido.
