While maintaining balance, I relaxed my body and legs and kicked.

Thanks to what I learned was stealing, I was able to rise to the surface almost simultaneously with my grandmother.

“pooh..!”

He looks at me with a pretty expression.

“Good job. Can I do it??”

“Yes, it is so much fun.”

“Grandma, is this sea urchin?”

“Written. There are a lot of sea urchins, and mussels are also witches.”

“Ah… mussels?”

“It is on a different level from the existing mussels. I dug it up well once. It’s fun to spend time together after a long time.”

“I am having so much fun. Thank you.”

“Be careful with this..”

“Yes, Grandma, be careful too.”

Soo-kyung presses her nose to make her snoring sound better, but everything is enjoyable and fun.

We put the sea urchins in the nets attached to the tewak and went down again.

I was able to go down to the bottom of the water more easily than the first time, and I swam in the water to my heart’s content and looked at the bottom.

It is a series of unexplored places, which is not strange even if it is said to be a miniature version of the universe.

As I tried to swim freely, the grandmother, as if feeling relieved, lost interest in me and immersed herself in the material in earnest.

He picks up what he has dug up with both hands and moves up and down in and out of the water.

Wouldn’t it be a moment to shine the light of the inner strength that has been doing material for the rest of my life?

I have to stop watching underwater and I have to dig something, but I washed my eyes to find the mussels my grandmother said, but I couldn’t find any.

Occasionally, they found large abalones and scallops, but it was not easy to find the mussels the grandmother was talking about.

It’s so much fun though.

It was all about walking in knee-deep and thigh-deep water, but I was doing things like my grandmother.

After about 40 minutes or so, the time to finish with a lot of effort came.

I put my regrets behind and dived in for the last substance,

I saw something dark in the cracks in the rocks and a pale shell of a familiar color.

He scooped up the water weeds and stones around him with his hands.

‘This is wild-caught mussels and wild-caught scallops!’

I was so excited that I motioned for my grandmother in the water to come.

Grandma came over as if she saw my urgent gesture, and I pointed to the place where the colony was forming.

After making circles in the water, I was busy digging out mussels and scallops with the hook in my hand, and I started picking them up and putting them in the net.

A sense of joy that I discovered wild mussels and scallops, which are famous here, wrapped around my whole body.

After an hour or so of material, we got out of the water, sat down on the rocks on the seashore, and talked while breathing heavily.

“You hit the lottery. Lotto.”

It was a very excited voice.

“Grandma, these are mussels and scallops, right?”

“Warmmae, I’ve never seen guys so close together like this while I’m materializing here.”

It is not the size of mussels and scallops that are common in the market.

Natural, not farmed.

A dozen mussels and scallops the size of an adult’s palm.

Taking off her goggles, she smiles, revealing a bright, wet face like a young girl.

“Like Hong-sik said, you are lucky.. Only good things happen.”

“no. Thanks to my grandmother, I exercised properly today. thank you.”

“Take a look around the island of Hongsan Island and stop by in the evening. I’m going to go to the middle of the day. okay?”

“Yes, Grandma. Should I stop now?”

“Geuljwi, it’s hard now. I had a lot of fun today.”

“Me too.. hahahahaha.”

As he was about to finish it, Doongdungi suddenly splashed around..

We use the seashore rock as a diving platform and jump as it is.

Grandmother was startled and jumped up from her seat. Soon, it was a big laugh.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

It was so cute to see Doongdoongi moving his feet and swimming.

“Warmma. There is no complete seal. oops.”

The water couldn’t dry Doongdoongi, who really likes to swim.

Doongdungah, what are you really doing? huh? Cheek.

Substance with my grandmother was something I will remember for a long time.

I spent the morning time like that, and I cycled around the outskirts of the island with a light heart.

I have already circled the island with Song, but it gives me a different feeling than riding a bicycle.

If the former was a journey of a point that was cut off, the latter was a feeling of a continuous line.

To put it simply, what is the difference between tourism and travel?

They rushed to take a picture and then went to another tourist spot to take a picture…

Since when did I stop doing this kind of tourism?

‘Is it from this trip?’

Anyway, after breaking the open sea that could easily become boring and entering the mountain road, I entered a comfortable village.

I was conscious of the flat tire, but it must have been something that Cassie hadn’t even begun to do.

Fortunately, the gum seemed to be in a good mood as well.

weird guys.

“If you guys feel good, I like it too. Shall we look around the village quietly now?”

“Kong-kwon-kwon.”

“Nyaaangong.”

About 200 years ago, the famous encyclopedia of aquatic flora and fauna – now like a bible – was created here.

The important thing is that it was made during the 16 years of exile in this place, which was considered synonymous with the place of exile at the end of the world during the Shinyu Persecution for Catholics.

Even during his exile, he built a shrine to train younger students and left a shining mark on future generations by rubbing and getting along with the people of the island.

He tried to live a close life with the fishermen and constantly thought about improving his life with them.

As a result of his 16 years of exile, he created an encyclopedia of aquatic flora and fauna.

A book that records all the sea creatures around here.

What makes this book famous and surprising to the academic community is that it organizes and describes fisheries information in an amazingly detailed way, including the name, size, shape, and taste of marine life living in the nearby sea.

He died in this village during his exile.

Thinking of the fishermen who lived at the same time as him, what kind of envy do you feel when you bow your head?

I received a lot of help from a person named Changdae, a fisherman here. What if I was Changdae?

I also come to the absurd thought of … but it was only 30 years ago that electricity came into this place, so I couldn’t even imagine how such an encyclopedia was created.

The village was surrounded by mountains, and stone walls taller than adults formed alleys.

Probably stone walls to block the rough sea breeze.

I thought of the labor of the wise people who would have built these stone walls.

Wouldn’t it be a beautiful and noble labor?

I parked my bike and walked several times along the low alley all the way to the end of the stone wall road that seemed to lead to another world.

The end of the stone wall road was connected to the Seodang, where the children of the neighborhood were gathered and taught writing at the time.

When I climbed the yard of the school, I could see a clear view of the sea off Hongsan Island.

“wow!”

The unexplored landscape overlooking the inhabited and uninhabited islands near Hongsan Island made me exclaim.

I dared to guess that this unexplored landscape of Hongsando was the driving force that allowed him to endure the sadness and loneliness of his 16 years of exile.

Feeling the comfort and breath of that era, I came down from the village and headed to the site.

When I returned to the campsite, Kandol Kansuni came down and attacked me.

Mango also came down from the rooftop and sat in front of me.

Their vitality and energetic flapping of their wings seem to represent their joy.

Same for me.

“Did you have a good time?”

Shah Shah Shah. Shashasak.

Horororok. Horororok.

They seem to be grooming themselves in front of me, rubbing their front paws and rubbing their heads.

“Guys, I missed you too. Now, let’s eat.”

I don’t know how cute it is to see her take a seat in front of the bowl before I finish my words.

Mango, Doongdungi, and Gooreum were fed, and Kkandoli Kkansuni and Mango were fed mealworms and nuts for a late lunch.

“What do I eat… it would be nice to eat something simple…”

In the evening, he said that he would prepare a table with the things he caught today, so he searched the refrigerator for a simple meal.

“Ohh!”

I saw leftover steamed monkfish in the freezer.

What is this feeling like?

I was salivating for no reason as I thought that this would be how it feels to find water in an oasis.

“I think you can just mix it up and eat it.”

I took out the frozen monkfish on the tech table, opened the plastic pack, and took out the kimchi from the refrigerator and cut it into small pieces with scissors.

I didn’t pour water and put the rice in it.

I was thinking of adding a lightness to the spiciness by frying an egg.

Heat oil in a frying pan and crack an egg.

When the fried egg was finished, sliced kimchi was added and stir-fried, and then frozen monkfish steamed was cut with scissors and fried together.

After pouring out a bit of the soup, he added hot rice and started stir-frying.

If you stir-fry it for too long, it will burn, so it was enough just for the fried rice to stick to the bottom of the frying pan.

Kim morak morak morak morak morak morak morak morak.

The pungent smell stung my nose and my mouth started to salivate.

“Oh? Did you have Kim?”

I opened a seasoned seaweed and sprinkled it over the fried rice.

gulp.

“Now then, shall we eat? …huhu..”

He scooped up a generous spoonful of rice, cooled it with his breath, and took it to his mouth.

mumble, mumble.

“Hey. This is it.”

I was grateful that I could have such a delicious meal with the leftovers from the market as a side dish.

Feel the crispness of leftover bean sprouts, the chewiness of anglerfish meat, the lightness of a fried egg that has been mixed and loosened like zidane, and the sweetness and spiciness of stir-fried kimchi.

Crunchy.

Without a grain of rice, a piece of bean sprouts, or a piece of kimchi, I emptied it all.

“Ugh.. Kkeok.”

I ate like a beggar because I was starving because of the substance and the simple walk in the morning, but I was happy nonetheless.

It was finished by pouring cold water into an empty bowl of Hetbahn with rice grains attached and emptying it at once.

“Kya! I ate well!”

And, as it were, it was mesmerizing.

With me, I was able to take a nap with peace of mind, thinking that even the chewing gum wouldn’t go far.

this evening.

The sunset light from Hongsan Island quietly seeped into the Happy.

While watching the sunset with my hands on my head to open my eyes and watch the sunset,

From noble mtl dot com

Tillilily.

I got a call from Park Hong-shik.

“Yes, brother, this is Johun.”

“Mody?”

“I went for a walk with substance and came back. I took a nap and woke up now.”

“What is it? It’s great. Go over to the grandmother’s house and say ode. Cheol-min came too.”

“I was waiting. I will go now.”

I got up from my seat, washed my face at the sink, and started preparing for a bari-bari.

Stone pot rice with mussels

This time, I took all the guys out.

I thought that I could play outside because I was cool, and that Hongsik could leave it at his older brother’s house.

I put the biggest mango in the basket on the front of the bike, and I burned chewing gum and gum on the panniers hanging on the left and right at the back.

This time, Cathy made a side mirror to look at the guys sitting behind.

“Thank you, Cathy.”

<No. Enjoy the happy times and make many good memories>

“Yeah, thank you.”

Every day was happy.

Today, I left the site with a light mind to see what kind of food and stories await me.

Evening ride from site to grandma’s restaurant.

“Gondre.. Mandre.. I’m drunk..”

this..

The trot, which I don’t normally listen to or like, came out of my mouth and threw it away.

Why did the trot come out of my mouth when I was pedaling that short distance..

Maybe when I hung out with the elders in this area than me,

It must be because I remember their humming.

I put the laughter behind me and diligently pedaled.

evening time.

Darkness descended on Hongsan Island.

I arrived at the alley in front of Grandma’s shop and stopped my bike.

The light inside the store leaked out and dimly illuminated the outside of the alley.

On the clothesline hanging on the stone wall of the alley, the black suit I was wearing today was hanging.

Water was dripping down.

Probably to wipe off the salt and dry it.

An old rubber suit, at least ten years old, showing traces of stitching, hung on a fishing line that wouldn’t be strange if it broke easily if you pulled it hard.

I couldn’t take my eyes off it for a while because it seemed to reflect the owner’s grandmother’s hard life.

However, this is probably my opinion.

Because I saw a different expression of my grandmother while material.

happy expression.

“Aren’t you tired?”

Grandma’s answer to a thoughtlessly posed question, who laughed off that she was doing it for fun.

I was ashamed to think that my words were rumors.
