Hyeopjae and Geumneung: A Day of Sea Views, Filled Up at Mipojip in Aewol

On the day you plan a trip to Hyeopjae and Geumneung, leave one blank space on the schedule for the sea. Room to linger a little longer in front of a view you like, and to talk about nothing in particular with the person beside you. After looking out at the sea at Hyeopjae and Geumneung in Hallim, a meal in Aewol adds a tasty memory to the Jeju you have taken in with your eyes. For today's meal, consider Mipojip Jeju Aewol.

Sea views that begin with Biyangdo

Hyeopjae Beach sits in Hallim-eup, Jeju-si. The bright sand, the blue water, and Biyangdo beyond the sea all sit together in one view that holds your gaze. When you take photos, leave one frame with the island large in it and one with the sea spread wide. Even standing in the same spot, what you choose to frame changes the look of the trip.

Geumneung Beach, which continues on from Hyeopjae, also looks out at Biyangdo. If you visit both, talk as you go about which view you like more. When someone drawn to the colour of the water is there with someone whose eyes go to the sand, there is a pleasure in following the scene the other person picked. Before you choose the photo that came out well, be sure to put the phone down and simply enjoy the view itself.

Hyeopjae and Geumneung: both, or just one

The order in which you visit Hyeopjae and Geumneung can be decided by where you start the day and what you feel like. Rather than deciding from the outset that you must cover both without missing either, choose how far to roam according to the weather and how your companions are feeling. A day spent looking at the sea for a long while in one place is a fine trip too.

On a date, pick out one favourite photo for each other; with family, talk about the colour of the sea that caught your eye today. When you are unsure whether to add one more sight, leaving plenty of time for the meal is also a good choice. If you plan to move on to Aewol after the beaches, check the actual traffic and directions before setting off.

After the sea, a table of soy-cured seafood

A meal eaten after time in the sea breeze holds the pleasure of the trip once more. At Mipojip, take your time with the salty savour of the soy-cured seafood and warm rice. Hands that were busy capturing the view can now pick up a spoon and chopsticks, and share the story of the sea you saw today.

The Minyeo Haemuljang set (soy-cured seafood) includes one basic white rice pot per portion ordered, and it cannot be changed to a topping rice pot. Enjoy a meal with a piece of soy-cured seafood and a spoonful of white rice from the pot. When choosing with your group, it helps to open the Mipojip menu first. The anticipation of a meal starts the moment you decide together what you want to eat.

Share how you choose a view, and how you plan the meal

While looking out at the sea, each person may have a different favourite scene. If one wants to take photos and another wants to rest a while, start by listening to what each has in mind. There is no rule that everyone must enjoy the same view in the same way. If you have not yet decided whether to visit both beaches, each say one scene you really want to see and one bit of free time you want to keep for today.

If you have decided to head to Aewol, open directions again from where you are and check the destination. Rather than thinking of the sea in the photo and the restaurant as one place, plan the sightseeing in Hallim and the meal in Aewol separately. Instead of expecting a set travel time, look at the actual route and how your group is doing, then choose what comes next.

One view to share at the table

When you show your photos, rather than scrolling through many shots of the same scene, bring out the one you liked most first. Telling the others why you chose that photo can make the sea they saw feel new as well. Even if you looked in different directions at the beach, at the table you can share those stories. If you are looking for a place to eat in Aewol after the sea, open up Mipojip's menu photos with your group too.
