Asan Pinnacle Land
We’ve driven past Pinnacle Land more times than I can count, but there is nothing interesting about it from the road so we never stopped. It’s simple not marketed in a manner that stands out to foreigners. However, since I’m dedicated to knowing everything there is to do in and near Pyeongtaek, I finally had to go check it out. Like everything I’ve done so far in Korea (except a super weird Alice In Wonderland Park I once visited), Pinnacle Land turned out much cooler than I thought it was…

With summer coming quickly, it seems like a good time to post another 5 Things To do in Pyeongtaek blog since the last one was quite popular and there are plenty more things to do in the area.

So grab your sunblock and let’s go hit some water based outdoor activities in Pyeongtaek, South Korea. Seonggumi Hang Light, Dangjin, September 2008 Pyeongtaek Regional Maritime Affairs Office…

Beaches
Maps and beaches. These are two of my favorite things. Mostly because one leads to the other. Often I take a map and just go to places that seem like they might contain magic. Usually, I am well rewarded. Recently this type of wandering led me to a little slice of paradise. The water is shallow, there are sand crabs to chase, rocks to climb on, trees to rest under, and its away from the insanity. Pro Tip: Leave Pyeongtaek by 9:00am for best results. And NEVER take the main toll…

Futball in Suwon Trip Itinerary
About Futbal In South Korea The Korean Futbal Season runs from February through October. However, the schedule may be adjusted during a pandemic. Cities across South Korea have teams that compete around the country. Most are sponsored by major corporations. Pyeongtaek even has a team that practices out of the Stadium in Bijeon-dong. Getting to the Suwon Soccer Stadium While at work my friend messaged me to see if I wanted to watch a soccer game in Suwon. Since I’ve never had the privilege of watching a live soccer game…

Mudfest is the Best
CHECK OUT THIS YEARS MUDFEST VIDEO FROM ROK LIFE < CLICK HERE > After many years, I finally made it back for a little Mudfest drama. Despite all the reasons I want to hate Mudfest, I love it. In fact, I have found that the more someone doesn’t want to go, the more they seem to fall in love with it when they arrive. Of course, in three years a lot has changed. For example, there were actually clean people at the festival. I have no idea how this…
