Then we headed towards Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. Ltd (DSME)... this is my first time visit a big huge plant...never in my life i would imagine to visit this type of place..thanks to this program for the good exposure...fact: DSME was built on a reclamp sea water area..100%..that's impressive...unfortunately no photos are allowed at the plant..so the pics is on the office area only...

Later that day, we arrived at Chungmu Mariana Resort.. we spent one nite stay and we were changing partner for sleep (i mean my partner is not the same as in Ambassador Hotel)...
We were given opportunity for yatch/cruise at the sea just in front of the resort..there are birds (may b eagles..i dont know..hahahha..we can feed them just like in Langkawi)...we enjoy the cruise but it was not untill sunset..huhuhuhuuuu..so no romantic mood..hahhaha

April 18 - next day we off to Posco which was located in Gwangyang city..Posco is a steel company (biggest in the world)..we were shown how the iron are made..but sorry no photos are allowed...most of the raw materials are imported from Australia..processed in the factory..the metal then exported and use domestically for car building.. i rarely see woman, may b this type of work suit man most...
|
concentrate on the talk given by the repsentative |
Then we had lunch at Gokseong city...delish as usual...we had bibimbap actually..the old folks made it as welcoming our visit...here we were given chance to mix how many rice and vege (ingredient) on our own according to our need..
We were given speech and information about the Information Network Village (INVIL)...The head of the community introduce us the crops that they planted...we even have enough time for Q&A session...

And the best part, we were allowed to pick strawberry by ourself...fact: Korean strawberries is much sweet compare to Cameron Highland strawberries...

Later that day we check in at Korean Traditional Style Resort...from the outside it looks like an ordinary korean traditional house..but they have improve the facility so u can find fridge, tv, normal bulb, hot and cold water tap, heater..etc...
Before we call it a day, we went for rail bike...it was an old railway, they commercialise it into tourism attraction....that nite, we had a simple bbq...
The resort relates to the old story of Sim Cheong (Im not sure is this the right spelling)..how his blind father has raise her..how she sacrify her life to save his father in the hope his eyes will be ok..at last she married the king and met with his blind father....touching when Vivien share the story...
