Yeppeuda, a Word That Fits South Korea

I've long followed trends brought about by South Korea. One such word is "Yeppeuda." Beautiful. The first time I saw Korean actresses in dramas and K-Pop idols, that word came to mind. But, more deeply, speaking about South Korea, South Korea is truly beautiful.

I'm reminded of a scene in a Korean drama, the cherry blossoms falling. So beautiful and gorgeous. That's also the perfect setting for South Korea, for me. When I Googled it, South Korea is incredibly beautiful in spring. It's like a painting.

When I see that, I always dream of going to South Korea and experiencing it. Taking photos under the fallen cherry blossoms. I remember that scene in the drama "Doom At Your Service." It felt so beautiful. Especially the scene between Park Bo Young and So In Guk adds to the romance.

Then, in autumn, the maple leaves turn a golden red. It's so beautiful. Every season, South Korea manages to create beautiful cities. When I look at that photo, I feel like I want to be in South Korea. I want to experience the cherry blossoms falling.

Then, if I look further, South Korea's development is also very well-designed. Housing and other high-rise buildings are not chaotic. So, when I watch YouTube videos about South Korea, it feels very beautiful, with buildings neatly arranged, both in urban and rural areas.

What else makes Korea so beautiful? Actually, I see another side: the blend of modern and contemporary culture. The use of hambooks by every tourist who visits. A number of well-maintained historical sites. Another thing is that some of South Korea's small cultural traditions now feel global.

This situation makes me want to experience what it's like to be in South Korea. I'm even more convinced that South Korea is truly beautiful and I could visit it someday. That's all I can tell you, what do you think? See you in the next story.
