- So there I was, on a 55 minute subway ride to Dadaepo beach for the 9th Annual Busan Rock Fest. Jesi, Brandon, and I managed to find our way to this new section of town and we arrived just in time to catch the shuttle bus that was hauling people from the subway station to the beach. I went to this event expecting to be blown away by massive crowds and rowdy rock-and-roll fans, but it was the beach itself that stole the show. Dadaepo beach is a much more scenic, uncommercialized beach than Haeundae. It was refreshing to get away from the city life for awhile and enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape. The beach is almost entirely surrounded by a mountain range containing some really cool rock formations. It’s also a pretty popular fishing spot for locals. I took some great pictures from various positions on the rocks and watched as Korean men fished in the shallows and women went digging for crabs on the beach. After dark, we met up with some new friends who were camping on the beach for the weekend. Finished the night by joining a group of Sri Lankan guys who were playing music on drums and water bottles and singing some really interesting chants. Life here is just a little different.
