_ This trip was sponsor by KTO (Korea tourism organization)


_ the meeting day was Saturday (9-6-2012) at 8 AM

The story start …..

In the Bus :

I arrived at the KTO building and found the bus waiting for us and our destination was yeosu Expo. In this trip there were a lot of K Performance supporters from different countries and all of us were in teams of 2 people. My partner was from Indonesia and our team name was 7979. The bus moved at 8 am, they distribute small bag that include juice and small things to eat.


 Also they distribute the Expo entry tickets and cards with our names. Everyone looked tired so most of the K Performance supporters slept because our trip took almost 5 hours and we had 2 stops break. 


We arrived:





(First day)
We took off the bus heading to the gate after we pass the gate the teams’ starts to tour the Expo personally. My partner and I searched for the lockers room after we found it we put our bags and start the touring. Yeosu Expo is about everything culture, family, technology, learning, fun and art everything in one place. There are many pavilions such as international pavilion, Korea pavilion, marine life pavilion etc..However due to the amount of people are there we had to spend hours and hours in lines so we couldn’t visit everything. First we visited digital marine where Audience can see the Aquarium in 4D.




then we gone to the international pavilion.


 International pavilion is the place where you can visit most of countries without the need to travel. The visitors will experience the cultures and traditions of other countries. Each country represent itself buy showing the food, pictures, videos, performances and clothes. Also some of the countries offer their local products for sale. We spend 3 hours going around and visiting countries












(Concert) + Big O show
 At 6 pm we gather and we gone to attend the k-pop concert sponsor by KTO. In this concert artist like 4mints, beast and jay park came. At 9pm the concert finished. However we stayed till 10 p waiting Big O show which it was like fantasy. They used water and light effects and create a fantastic show.  After the show we walk around little bit then we gone to the place where will spend the night.





(Second day)
We started the day at 8.30 am we gone early to find out there are many people in lines. So we got into the lines. First we went to the marine industry and technology pavilion. We gone inside and saw a show which tell us how in the future we can use ocean to get our food. After that we went to the ocean and coast best practice. Here they encourage the audiences to help to protect the ocean and how they can do it.
Due to the amount of people I went again to the international pavilion. In the way I saw many of performance from different countries outside. At 2 pm we gather so we can go to odong island.





odong-do

It’s a small island but it’s a worthy place to visit if you are natural lover. There are guides if you ask for it. There are a lot of strange trees to enjoy and you can go down and enjoy the ocean. Also in the top there is odong light house
