An Unemployed Wanderer's Day Trip to Sejong


It's been three years since my last blog post! Can you guess who's back?
That's right... it's the Unemployed Edition ver. 2025! (Applause, anyone?)
This time, I visited Sejong for the very first time in my life!
I suddenly caught the “travel bug ✨” and hastily made plans, resulting in...
...a **late departure** after 3 PM.
Only an unemployed person could leave that late...
My destination was none other than…

I heard it's incredibly vast?
Supposedly, it's around 240,000 square meters... I have no idea how big that is.
The conclusion? It's simply huge!
Very, very huge!
My stamina decreased proportionally to its size!!! 😂
Looking back at the photos I took, they are a total mess.
They are mostly random shots without focus…
Yes, the conclusion is I don’t have decent photos.
<Photos to be added soon>
"80 Years of Liberation, Hibiscus Blooming Together"
So, I completed a survey and received a rose of Sharon (mugunghwa) seedling as a gift! ◡̈
The National Sejong Arboretum's 'Van Gogh in the Summer Night' 🎨

It just so happened that this special exhibition was on when I visited.
Even the name evokes a sense of emotion ✨
The exhibition runs from July 26th to November 2nd!
It's located in the Mediterranean Greenhouse within the Four Seasons Exhibition Greenhouse in the arboretum!!
It features four of Van Gogh's iconic masterpieces, recreated as gardens.
Sunflowers 🌻
The Starry Night ✨
Café Terrace at Night ☕️
Bedroom in Arles 🛏️
These four themes were beautifully displayed.
Because the plants from the paintings were actually moved into the garden,
it felt like I had stepped right into the artwork.
It felt nice taking an art trip while being unemployed.
Just a heads-up: It's not just real flowers!
There are artificial flowers displayed as well!
So, it's a harmony of real and artificial flowers?
It's worth visiting at least once, especially when there's a special exhibition/event!
I couldn't see everything because I arrived late, so I plan to visit again soon!
Since I'm unemployed, I have plenty of time... I'll enjoy it more leisurely next time 😎
Does anyone know this place ~~~?
It was past 7:30 PM,
and when I looked for a restaurant for dinner...
Most places were either closed or had run out of ingredients,
so there was nowhere to eat 😥
An unemployed person in a hungry situation.
Is this the synergy of hunger × no choices?
After searching for a while, I called Seongsanok and they said,
"Yes, you need to arrive by 8:30 PM. Is that possible?"
Yesyesyesyesyes!
I had to make it no matter what 😂
Korean Beef Tartare Bibimbap Set - 15,000 won

Wow, I wasn't expecting much, but it was incredibly delicious!!
The texture was so good because of the *gungchae* (celtuce) in the bibimbap
The taste was fantastic ~~~~~~~~~👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'd go to Sejong again just to eat this!!
Anyway, after looking around, eating, and heading home,
it was eleven o'clock at night.
