Today I went exploring more by myself in Yeongju. I walked about 20 minutes to get to the downtown area near the bus terminal. This is where all the stores and the main market are. I was extremely happy the first time I was here because I was afraid I would understand nothing in this town, but this place is the exception. There are brands and stores I know here and the store fronts are big and in English!
I had another run in with how nice Koreans can be. I accidentally dropped 5000won ($5.00) when I was taking a picture and as I was walking away an old Korean woman yelled and ran up to me and handed the money to me. I was very surprised and thanked her.
Today was a good day, I feel like I am finally getting an idea of where things are in this town and I did not get lost. Now I have to figure out public transportation and how to get out of this town to visit other places. A whole new set of challenges await..
