There are also many local favorite snack bars, seaside coffee shops in the surroundings.There are also many specialty small shops... Therefore, the popularity of Apa Village has been so hit over the years Because of the Korean drama and Korean drama to the father's village shooting and filming, the originally unknown fishing village became widely known, became a representative tourist village😎😎 📍 Cheongho-ro, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do (Cheongho-dong) #OverseasTravel #I miss #Summer good places

A boat that moves by pulling a rope, a geutbae, A village with abalone sundae filled with meat, and squid sundae, This is Abai Village in Sokcho, Gangwon-do!! Abalone Village, a small coastal village located on the coast of Sokcho, was created when refugees from the Hamgyeong-do region who came down to South Korea during the 1.4 Retreat during the Korean War, settled and lived together in the Sokcho coastal area near the Military Demarcation Line after the war ended and they had no way to return to their hometown. The name of the village, 'Abai', is also said to mean 'grandfather' in the Hamgyeong dialect🎅 This place, which used to be a village centered around displaced people who couldn't return to their hometown, gradually gained fame by appearing in various TV programs such as the famous drama Autumn in My Heart and the entertainment program 1 Night 2 Days. It is full of various entertainments such as the Gaetbae, a boat that you pull yourself to move, and various foods such as Abai Sundae and Hoe Naengmyeon, so it has now become a tourist attraction visited by many tourists visiting Sokcho!! While looking around the alleys of Abai Village, I saw two dogs tied up in front of the gate of a house in the alley🐕🐕‍🦺 The only difference was the color, and even the shape of their tails were the same. The two dogs staring intently at one spot looked like they had been copied and pasted using a computer program🤣🤣 P.S. That dog...was so vicious.....kekekekeke If there had been no leash, it might not have been safe😂😂 #moviefilminglocation #lifetravellocation #lifeshotspot #domestictravel #sokchotravel #safetravel #jhtour #wintertravel

Aba Village not only preserves rich traditional Korean architectural elements, but also frequently hosts various cultural activities with national characteristics, allowing tourists to experience the Korean rural style firsthand. Being in it, you can not only enjoy the charming natural scenery, but also feel the rich national cultural heritage. Being in Aba Village is like traveling back to Korea’s ancient rural era.

Wandering around, admiring the charming scenery and listening to the melodious local accent, you will be surrounded by this comfortable and peaceful atmosphere. #Seoul Attractions

#OverseasFlightEvent Summer is fast approaching ~ At times like this, I think of Sokcho, a representative tourist destination in Korea... These days, the highways are well-developed, so you can get there in 3 hours by car... When you arrive in Sokcho ~ You have to eat something first at Abai Village ~

You only eat Abai Sundae in Sokcho Abai Village?? Sundae Gukbap is common, but you may have heard of Gari Gukbap for the first time. If you think of it as bean sprout gomtang, you will get a sense of the taste. It is also good as a hangover soup, so I recommend it as a breakfast menu.

#SokchoTravel 💙 This is Abai Village, famous for its squid sundae in Sokcho, Gangwon-do! The ships anchored in the sea and the energetic liveliness of the market were intense. Abai Village is close to Sokcho Central Market, and the squid sundae sold there was superb. Manseok Dakgangjeong is also famous, so I hope you visit! The name of Abai Village comes from the Hamgyeong-do dialect. It is said that refugees formed a group village near the sea during the Korean War. It is said that Abai, which means old in the Hamgyeong-do dialect, was added to the village name because many of the people who lived here were elderly! 🦑 Sokcho Abai Village: 122 Cheongho-ro, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do 🌊 Enjoy delicious squid sundae and food while tasting the delicacies of the mountains and the sea! #Gangwon-do #Sokcho #Travel

This is Sokcho, Gangwon-do, where I go to play every year. I went to Abai Village, took a boat, went to Sokcho Central Market, bought fried chicken, and ate it while looking at the sea.

This is a photo I took while traveling to Sokcho. This is the beach you come to when you take a boat from the boat dock and pass through the Abai Village alley. The view is really nice, and it's a place where you can take out drinks, sit on a bench, and heal while looking at the beach. I like it so much that I'm sharing it.
