and look down at the distant scenery from the quiet temple's yard
Why don't you walk along the railroad tracks of the old history
which will be released soon in the studio today
and this phrase came out and my eyes stayed for a long time
"I will be more friendly to those close to me
I'll just be indifferent to such a relationship
I will be so generous with such a zero-waste heart." During lunchtime
I took a moment to read Fei Yong's "The Study of the Hard Mind" and this line came out again
"How can I stay here in this moment without getting nervous
feel the beauty of the present moment." If you think about it
You just have to be friendly to those close to you
That's why I wrote in my daily newsletter every morning
love and aspiration." I pre-sent a newsletter and drove toward Namyangju
if you take the 2nd Ring Expressway in the Seoul metropolitan area
you will see a sign going to Yangpyeong and Hongcheon
I passed under the sign and grabbed the handle
'The water fog will bloom like a haze on the Bukhan River by now.'
The Bukhan River flows softly to the right
The sky is lightly floating with a bird's hair cloud
and the sunlight that touches the surface shines like a gold fly
Namyangju can be reached in an hour by car
It would be a good idea to look around Neungnae Station
and to walk around the tranquil Sansa Ssutongsa Temple
you can also see the flowing Namhangang River
Haneumgol is the place where Haneum Lee Deok-hyung
well-known as "Oseong and Haneum," spent his life in his hometown after dealing with the Imjin War
Two ginkgo trees that Han-eum planted in front of the house at the time are still guarding the house
Hanumgol became famous because of "Doldam." Since ancient times
villagers have collected stones that came out while building houses or plowing fields and built walls
If stones with different shapes and colors are scattered
a plausible stone wall path has been completed
The stone walls are built around a hanok called 'Park Material'
You walk slower when you enter the stonewall path
The stone walls in this village are special
from the mountains and another by the stream
leaning against each other without a single adhesive
fallen leaves permeate through the cracks of the wall
While walking down a narrow road between stone walls
Spring gardens are planted with seedlings that look like eggplants and peppers
Looking at a straw hat that someone took off on one bench suddenly reminded me of my mother's house
There are no points set up to take pictures
but a living street where people living here pass
The season walks over the stone walls and leaves footprints
and grass is overflowing over the wall in summer
It is said that the villagers gather together every spring and rebuild the wall that collapsed in the rain and wind
There is also a stone that seems to be stuck here after rolling freely
Not a single flower blooming between the walls is just a flower
and every small crock next to it are places where residents' hands have reached
which is located on the middle of Ungilsan Mountain as if flying
was named because the sound of water falling from the cracks of rocks made the sound of bells
The reason why the monk is beautiful is because of the scenery from the temple
Seo Geo-jeong called this landscape "the best view among Eastern temples." There are two ginkgo trees in Sujongsa Temple that were planted by King Sejo
he stands calm as if he had been liberated
and another 25m high and 1.2m around the chest
On one side of the temple yard is Samjeongheon
You have to wash the dishes after drinking tea from a thermos bottle yourself
a simple station where time seems to have stopped
The Gyeongchun Line flowed from Paldang Station to Ungilsan Station
a double-track subway line was built from Paldang Station to Gukguksu Station and the following year to Yongmun Station
and the riverside railroad connecting Paldang-Neungnae-Yangsu Station was closed
which almost disappeared as only dust piled up
began to get crowded again after the bicycle path was created
The view along the river was quickly rumored to be a wonderful place among riders
riders dressed in colorful clothes and helmets began to flock
The road may be slightly bent along the corner of the mountain
or it may extend and disappear into a vanishing point
The view is also good because it is a walking path while looking at the Bukhangang River
As you walk along the railroad from Paldang Station
you will reach Neungnae Station before you know it
Neungnae Station is a pretty green building
and the history was refurbished by taking advantage of its appearance when it was driving
The atmosphere of decommissioning is nowhere to be found
and the inside of the history was reproduced intactly in the waiting room of the old Neungnae Station
The train timetable and fare table used at the time were also attached
photos taken by those who traveled wearing uniforms and training uniforms were hung
Colorful wooden chairs lined up side by side also evoke calm nostalgia
a train that has run on the Jungang Line train road for decades has turned into a cafe and is receiving customers
The Dasan site of Mahyeon Village is close to Neungnae Station

You can put aside your worries that it might be boring
Across the street from the Silhak Museum stands Yeoldang
It was restored in 1975 when it was washed away during the great flood in 1925
與猶 was built in 1800 when Dasan abandoned his government post and lived in his hometown
The name 'Yeoudang' means 'I will live with caution and caution like crossing thin ice'

There is his poem called "Hwansocheongeo," which recites the scenery of the river in front of the village
Meet 'Slow Village' Joan-myeon at Slow City Cultural Center
Joan-myeon is the first place to be designated as a slow city in the metropolitan area
The beautiful nature of the Bukhangang and Namhangang rivers
traditional heritages such as Dasan Jeong Yak-yong's birthplace and museum
and clean water and soil have been combined to show the epitome of a sustainable ecological city
The biggest reason Joan was designated as a slow city is that it is close to Seoul
was not developed due to various regulations due to the protection of drinking water sources
this regulation appeared as a result of protecting nature and culture
Joan-myeon was certified as an international Slow City at the board meeting of the International Slow City Federation in Perth
There is a place to look for to understand the Slow City Joan
it is the Slow City Cultural Center located across the water garden
It serves as a public relations center for introducing Joan-myeon
I continued to read the writer's manuscript that I was reading in the morning
And I hung around in front of this phrase for a long time
"Even when I'm at this age where I'm going to enter the 50th row
I want to be like that." When I see cool people who make me think
"I want to get old like that," I am mesmerized and admired
You are trying to live your days in a frugal and joyful way (today)
and you are trying to help someone with your generous arms (together with someone)
and it quickly regains calm (remembering death)
This seems to be similar in both East and West
such as Grandma Moses of the United States
who began her career as an artist by teaching herself at the age of 70
an honorary professor at Yonsei University
And there is always "today," "together," and "death," as previously said
in the veins that penetrate their wonderful lives."
Let's leave early in the morning when something is dizzy or the screening is twisted
The rising water fog disappears in an instant when the sun rises
I hope you notice that "the present is a dream
and aspiration" in front of that water fog

It slightly freezes the broth brewed with Yangji and buttocks
Pyeonyuk and pork are crushed together with onions and the meat is also delicious
Gaeseong restaurant is a restaurant north of here
It is also famous as a place where former President Kim Young-sam and his wife visited more than 10 times
The main menu is North Korean dumplings and cold noodles with cucumbers
The end of the trip to Namyangju is the old house of a hanok cafe
The 88-room traditional Korean house was converted into a coffee shop
you will find a spacious and sleek hanok with eaves
And there is a subtle coffee scent in the hanok
I take off my shoes on the board stone and sit in the love room and drink coffee
I think it'll suit you if you say "Gabicha." The taste of coffee that you drink sitting on an old table with your legs crossed is strange
How did King Gojong feel about enjoying coffee
The sunlight pattern on the bars spreads to coffee cups

"We will push for the transfer to Seoul in the direction that citizens want most after a public opinion survey."
The city of Guri is protesting against the decision of Gyeonggi-do Province
"The transfer to Seoul is not a fixed issue yet
it is just a process of collecting basic data and analyzing the effects by reflecting citizens' needs," Guri City said
"Governor Kim Dong-yeon said he would push for the relocation of affiliated organizations as promised
the administration of Gyeonggi Province will not be trusted."
voices are growing that Gyeonggi-do Province should welcome the decision and actively pursue GH attraction

The extended Byeolnae Line (Amsa to Byeolnae) on Subway Line 8
which connects Byeolnae Station in Namyangju City
Gyeonggi Province and Amsa Station in Seoul
Gyeonggi Province announced on the 5th that Gyeonggi Province Governor Kim Dong-yeon and ordinary citizens will hold an opening ceremony and test drive ceremony at Byeolnae Station at 2 p.m
Byeolnae Line (Amsa-Byeolnae) is a 12.9km long route that connects a total of six stations from Amsa Station in Gangdong-gu
A total of 1.38 trillion won was spent on the project
and the Guri and Namyangju sections were carried out by Gyeonggi-do and the Gangdong-gu sections were carried out by the Seoul Metropolitan Government
The Byeollae Line is a one-compartment of six cars and operates at a maximum speed of 80km/h
Gyeonggi Province explains that the opening of the Byeolnae Line will reduce the travel time from 45 minutes to 27 minutes for two transfers
making commuting easier for residents of Namyangju as well as residents of nearby northeastern Gyeonggi Province

Ahead of the official opening of the Seoul Subway Line 8 extension (byolnae Line) on the 10th of next month
it was pointed out that measures to lower the congestion level of Line 8 were needed
This is because if a large number of passengers board Namyangju
passengers can flock to the existing transfer station on Line 8
Byeolnae Line extends 19.2km from Amsa Station
Six new stations (Amsa Historical Park Station
where several transfer stations on Line 8 adjacent to Namyangju pass
deputy mayor of Seoul Metropolitan Government
on the 11th and demanded measures to improve congestion following the opening of the Byeolnae Line
the congestion level of Line 8 is severe during rush hour," adding
"To prevent the second Gimpo Gold Line incident
we need to come up with measures to resolve congestion."
Gangdong-gu observed the congestion inside subway cars during rush hour (8 a.m
to 8:30 a.m.) for three stations on Line 8 Amsa Station
and passengers flocked to Cheonho Station and Gangdong-gu Office Station
The Seoul Metropolitan Transportation Corporation considers the congestion to exceed 150% as "a situation where the entrance door is crowded and passengers are in close contact with each other." Gangdong-gu explained that the congestion at these two stations exceeded 150%
and some stations squeezed between passengers to get off
passengers were often seen waiting for the next train because the arriving train was full of passengers
The congestion level of Line 8 is 142.9% as of the first quarter of this year
Congestion is a number indicating how many passengers were on a subway train with a capacity of 160 people
more than 228 people are already riding per train during the congestion time of Line 8
According to the results of Gangdong-gu adding the number of people again in the Seoul Transportation Corporation's "2024 Congestion Status" and the 2025 demand forecast in the Gyeonggi-do Byeolnae Basic Plan
the congestion level of Line 8 can rise up to 170% when the Byeolnae Line is opened
Line 8 usually runs as six mini trains compared to other Seoul subways that connect eight to 10 trains
the number of train transport personnel is small and the platform is designed to be small
not only the inside of the train but also the congestion on the platform can be higher
The Seoul Metropolitan Government and Gyeonggi-do Province
are also preparing measures such as increasing the number of cars
judging that the congestion level could increase due to the opening of the Byeolnae Line
Line 8 operates seven six-car trains during rush hour
and the Seoul Metropolitan Government expects at least two trains to reduce congestion
It costs 13 billion won to 15 billion won each to manufacture a six-car train
It usually takes four years from vehicle manufacturing to test-run to put it on the Byeollae Line
The Seoul Metropolitan Government proposed to Gyeonggi-do Province a plan to improve and put in trains on other lines
believing that the introduction of new cars is not effective
An official from the Seoul Metropolitan Government said
"It is expected that it will cost 3.4 billion to 5 billion won other than rent to improve the number of cars on other lines into six cars and increase the number of units," adding
"We delivered it to Gyeonggi Province on the morning of the 12th to suggest the number of units expected to be necessary."
The cost of increasing the number of vehicles is being negotiated with the Seoul Metropolitan Government (20%) and Gyeonggi-do Province (80%) like construction costs
An official from the Gyeonggi Provincial Government said
"The service was almost completed in October last year by ordering the Korea Transportation Association to improve the congestion level," adding
"We will try to resolve the congestion in consultation with the Seoul Metropolitan Government." However
regarding the comparison with the Gimpo Gold Line
there are many existing wide-area buses to and from Seoul
so the railway dependence will not be as high as the Gimpo Gold Line."
The reason why attention is particularly paid to the congestion level of the Byeollae Line is that safety awareness about people flocking to narrow spaces has increased since the Itaewon disaster
the Seoul Metropolitan Government lowered congestion by increasing train operations by two times during rush hour as the congestion level of lines 4 and 7 exceeded 150-157%
Even if consultations with Gyeonggi Province are delayed
the city will increase the number of trains departing from Amsa Station
Gangdong-gu Office also proposed to the Seoul Metropolitan Government the establishment of a new bus route linking Sinseol Station
which connects Byeolnae Station in Namyangju
will start operating with the first train early on the 10th
the Byeolnae Line is a metropolitan railway that began construction in September 2015 and will open for the first time in nine years as part of measures to improve metropolitan transportation in the northeastern part of the metropolitan area
including Byeolnae District and Jingeon District in Namyangju City
and Galmae District and Dasan District in Guri City
and Amsa Historical Park Station to Amsa Station
The metropolitan area integrated rate system
it took an average of 55 minutes by bus and 45 minutes by car from Byeollae to Jamsil Station
It is expected to shorten the commuting time by more than 20 minutes compared to the existing travel time."
as passengers from Namyangju City and Guri City flow into Seoul
there is a concern that congestion in some sections of Line 8 will increase
about 70,000 people live in Byeolnae District and 80,000 people live in Dasan New Town as of November 2023
where the Gyeongui Central Line is in operation
It is expected that the number of passengers will increase further if it is possible to transfer to Byeolnae Line
Infrastructure and Transport and Seoul Metropolitan Government are from Cheonho Station to Jamsil Station.In preparation for the increase in congestion in the Seokchon Station section
two more trains departing from Amsa Station will be added
and the number of trains will be increased five times during commuting hours to prevent congestion
Amsa Station to disperse the demand for subway use.Bus route No
which runs 90 times a day between Cheonho Station and Gangil Station
the government plans to increase the number 9302 wide-area bus
