Introducing Jeongdongjin

Twenty kilometres south of Gangneung is a holiday resort with novel tourist attractions, including a North Korean submarine. The town is famed for having a train station on the beach with a swifts nest in its eaves. The sand-timer hourglasses in the souvenir stalls relate to a popular Korean TV soap opera Hourglass, which used the station in some scenes. On a hilltop you can see a giant cruise ship and a sailing ship – a surreal sight.
