2024 Workshop in Tongyeong

Our group held a workshop in Tongyeong, city located on the southern part of Korea. We enjoyed different oyster dishes, popular in Tongyeong. We also had a quick stroll to the mural village with breathtaking views. 

Our biweekly lab seminar and idea proposal tournament took place in a beachfront seminar room. The winner of the idea proposal tournament was Team Ace, with Minjeong, Dr. Dongwook Kim and Professor Sukbok Chang! Congrats!

After the heated discussion and fun tournament, we had a quick coffee time, in courtesy of Professor. Soon after, we had dinner - fresh seafood from Tongyeong is like no other!

The following day, we devoured breakfast at the oceanfront hotel. The breakfast under magical sunrise was immaculate! We also enjoyed Tongyeong city by riding a cable car. We could take a panoramic view of Tongyeong at a glance. Lastly, we had a brief hike to the Mt. Mireuk and felt autumnal breeze at the top.

Our next stop was Jinju! We had Jinju cold noodle and beef pancake for lunch. Then we took a walk around Jinju castle, where Jinju National Museum was located in. We learned about Korean history and went to Chokseongnu Pavilion with profound past. Finally, we headed back to our campus! We had both food for tummy and food for thought at Tongyeong workshop, had so much fun!
