The Beach 'Eul Wang Li' in Korea


Korea is a peninsula, which is almost surrounded by ocean but is joined to a larger piece of land; therefore, beaches are famous. All beaches are crowded in every summer. Also I went beaches sometimes, but Eul Wang Li, which is located in Young Jong Do, Incheon, is one of my memorable trips. I went there with my friends, when I was a high school student. It was my first trip without my family. That is why I remain in my mind. When we planed this trip, we decided to depart in the morning and back in the night. My friends and I went there by bus, and it took 3 hours. After we arrived, we were so excited. We jumped in the sea, swam, and splashed water playfully. We did not care about getting wet. It was so fun and few hours later, we felt hungry. So we found a restaurant which cooked selfish and seafood. When we took a walk along the seashore in order to go to the restaurant, one of my friends who likes to do mischief started throwing the sands to us. Then he run away from us, but HaeYen who got hit by sands followed him very fast. At that moment, she fell down the sands because of the stone. The sky getting darker and darker, so she could not see clearly. She was so pain, thus she could not stand up. As soon as she fell down, we run to her quickly and asked she is okay. But we were wary sorry about that; however, it was funny because of her pose. We could not swallow a laugh. Her pose looked like an actor Arnold Schwarzenegger who is acted in the Terminator. When Arnold was born, he sat on the ground. After that happened, we called her Ms.Terminator. Fortunately, she was getting better soon, so we went to the restaurant. We ate seafood and asked to the server when will be the last bus coming. She said the last bus was
9:00, but it was 9:15! We were panic because we missed the last bus. Unavoidably, we slept in
Eul Wang Li. Next day, we came back to home early, but parents were very upset. That was bad; however, we had a great time. It was wonderful trip also I can not forget this ever.
