Personally, I am a big fan of flowers and plants, especially Roses. We all love Roses because they represent something pristine and lovely. It talks about love, innocence, and strength of character. Their splendid colors and captivating vibes are making my mind full of positivity and giving my heart full of love. It makes me want to create more poems and songs. It feels like they talk to me and say “Relax, life is wonderful”. That is why I can’t hide my excitement and happiness when we arrived at Gokseong, even though it’s a little bit hot because Spring is leaving and Summer is coming, I still didn’t bother to take photos and explore every attraction inside the Seomjingang Train Village.
