Scenes from August 2024

Just putting up some photos I snapped without much thought..

Sunset

Scenaries 202408.

Pretty, isn’t it.

Luwon City

Scenaries 202408.

Luwon City is a redevelopment district in Seo-gu, Incheon, and so many apartment blocks have gone up around here that I went over for a look.

Luwon City

Scenaries 202408.

They have done a nice job of it, and the prices have gone up a lot too. So this is what happens when the government pushes something as policy.

Cheongna

Scenaries 202408.

Maybe it is because there are even more apartment blocks now, but it seems like a more livable place than before.

Cheongna

Scenaries 202408.

The apartment blocks now run all the way to Luwon City.. at this point it is hard to tell whether Luwon City is Cheongna or Cheongna is Luwon City..

Uuhee Atelier

Scenaries 202408.

The name caught my eye, so I took a photo..

The street

Scenaries 202408.

The sky was magnificent..

Bocchi the Rock! opens in theaters

Scenaries 202408.

It is doing really well these days.. but there is no next season coming, and yet the films and the concerts just keep on happening.. I cannot say the thought “wait, why?” never crosses my mind..

“Not the TMON office”

Scenaries 202408.

I imagine it is because of the TMON payment scandal.. in this state there is no way anyone is getting to work..

Piyangok

Scenaries 202408.

I had no idea there was a Piyangok this big — a Pyongyang-style naengmyeon place — in Apgujeong..

Le Alaska in Seongsu

Scenaries 202408.

I had been wondering where Le Alaska had gone, and here it was. It was good to see it again..

UNIQLO

Scenaries 202408.

At the UNIQLO in Seongsu you have to queue up to get in..

Ankimo at Mono Mart

Scenaries 202408.

There is a Mono Mart, a wholesale food store, in Seongsu, so I dropped in, and they even sell ankimo, monkfish liver. With this much on the shelves you could run an izakaya..

The Han River in the rain

Scenaries 202408.

The rain came down all of a sudden.

Torikizoku

Scenaries 202408.

They said it was opening soon, so I took a photo.. but after it opened it got so popular that I could not even work up the nerve to go..

Manna Plus

Scenaries 202408.

Apparently this is another place that blew up after robbing Peter to pay Paul, just like TMON.. things like this happen a lot in a downturn..

Evangelion

Scenaries 202408.

It is impressive that Evangelion is still this popular, but I wonder when it will finally be forgotten..

Bijindo Haemul Ttukbaegi, the head branch

Scenaries 202408.

I spotted it while walking past, and it turns out the head branch of this seafood ttukbaegi place was tucked away here.

Gyeyangsan

Scenaries 202408.

When the weather is good, the sky is beautiful.

Gyeyangsan

Scenaries 202408.

The walking paths are well laid out too, so it is not a bad place to live.

The view

Scenaries 202408.

It connects to the Han River, and it looks great.
