[KOREA] 속초 SOKCHO ONEDAY TRIP

AUTUMN finally here. So yesterday, i just went back from my short one-day-trip to a city in northeast part of korea. I just felt so tired with my job lately and this short escape just healed me alot. Lately this city is famous among koreans because here the only city in Korea where we can catch POKEMON AHAHAHAHA POKEMONGO i dont know how korea's goverment can limited that game only available in some places only. So so many youngers playing game and this season, autumn also the best first hiking destination for elders ( since it's north part so the color of leaves changed first compared to other mountain)
