Next week I am going on a three-day hiking trip to Jirisan - at 1915 meters (6282 feet) the tallest mountain in mainland South Korea - so this weekend I tagged along for a warm up with the hiking group I'm going with. Although a great deal of fun was had, as this picture indicates we were anything but warm.
On the bright side - literally - the rain stopped right after we reached the summit, affording us a rare sight in and around Seoul: clear skies. The air quality here isn't too bad, but it does normally keep visibility down. After the morning rains, however, it was clear skies and lovely views!
At the bottom of the mountain, of course, were the two things I've grown to know and love while hiking in Korea:
1) temples
2) Makgeolli!
