Sunday was a great day to scramble to the top of a crowded mountain in Busan. At times we thought that a rock concert had been held at the top and as we walked up, the concert goers, in their thousands, flooded down. Then we realized that there was indeed no concert, just a regular, crowded, North Face ridden mountain in Korea. The view from the top of Jangsan (Jang Mountain) was spectacular. You can see Busan 360 degrees...very impressive! The throngs of people drinking on the mountain were impressive as well!
This is what happens when two young adventures take on a force of nature called the Mountain Ajushi. The Mountain Ajushi can be found throughout Korea wherever there are mountains and booze. Boozing it on a mountain is a traditional activity of many Korean men.
Two of the pictures are of Busan from the top of Jang Mountain. You can see my neighborhood. It looks like it's made from Lego blocks. Soviet-era architecture is all the rage in South Korea. The pictures of us playing were taken at U2 a few weeks ago.
