Deokjeokdo(Island) with beautiful scenery

1 Introduction to Deokjeokdo Island

The first place you will meet at Deokjeokdo, which can be reached in 1 hour by speedboat from Incheon Port Passenger Terminal, is Dowoo Pier.


It takes 2 hours and 40 minutes by car ferry. There are two places to catch a ferry to Deokjeokdo: Incheon Port Passenger Terminal and Bangamari Pier.


The first thing that catches your eye at Deokjeokdo Pier is the ‘Deokjeokdo Love Postbox.’


It is even more delightful to find a mailbox on an island where you miss your family or lover left behind on land. I think it is romantic to send a letter to your loved one about the island.


At the pier, a bus is waiting for you according to the time the boat arrives. There are many islands without buses, so a bus is the most welcome friend for travelers on an island trip.


Deokjeokdo has two public buses, one to Bukri and one to Seopo-ri, which run an average of 9 times a day to Neungdong Pebble Beach, providing convenience to those visiting the island.


The Deokjeok-myeon region is the oldest historical region among the islands of our country according to records.


This is because Deokjeok-myeon was the base area of ​​the maritime route used for about 100 years from the 27th year of King Geunchogo (372 AD) when Baekje began to trade with China until the 21st year of King Gaero (475 AD) when the Han River basin was lost due to an attack by Goguryeo.


It was the most important location for trade with China since long ago, starting from Neungheodae in Incheon, passing through Deokjeok Island and crossing the Yellow Sea to Dengzhou and Naeju on the Shandong Peninsula in China.


Later, during the Unified Silla period, when Baekje emerged as a maritime kingdom by taking control of the East Sea, Deokjeok Island played an important role as a gateway to the sea, and it was also an important area for maritime activities during the Goryeo period.

Bibimbap mixed with rice, Ttara Gukbap eaten separately

Image
   Korean food culture is a soup culture, which is distinct from the Western culture of eating in small plates. Also, our bibimbap culture is integrated, so it is easy to communicate (if you go to a local festival, you will see a culture where rice and various vegetables are put in a large bowl and mixed with a large spoon), but on the other hand, there is also a separate soup culture. Also, bibimbap culture is a culture of fusion. In foreign countries, it is well known as a healthy and well-being food due to the use of vegetable vegetables. It can be said that bibimbap is a major food along with kimchi, bulgogi, and gimbap. This bibimbap is a food that puts various vegetables in rice, which is a grain, and tops it with gochujang, which can be seen as a type of sauce, and various ingredients such as egg yolk are often used to create shape and color. Sundae gukbap and somori gukbap are representative examples of these types of soups, and can be commonly found in almost every to...

Jjajangmyeon - Noodles of Korean Memories

Image
 Jjajangmyeon, along with jjambbong and tangsuyuk, is a popular Chinese food, but it is a type of K-food that was newly created after being modified to suit Korea. In the late 19th century, when Incheon Port opened, workers from Shandong Province in China came to Korea and ate noodles mixed with soybean paste as a simple meal, missing the taste of their hometown. Jjajangmyeon began to be sold in earnest in Incheon Chinatown. Among them, Gonghwachun opened in 1883 and is known as the oldest Chinese restaurant in Korea. It is said to be a funny Jjajangmyeon and a sad crying noodle. Jjajangmyeon is a type of food that can be eaten simply, like Chungmu Gimbap from Chungmu, Gyeongnam Province. There are various types, such as Muljjajang, Spicy Jjajang, Seafood Jjajang, and Jajangban. It is said that Jjapaghetti and Jjajangroni are popular among the public. ​ Jjajangmyeon reminds Koreans of their childhood memories, so it is a food eaten at elementary or middle schoo...
