Napoleon Brick Oven Pizza Right Here

in DaeguPizzaiolo (pronounced pizza-yo-lo) is a very new Italian restaurant in downtown Daegu. It’s on a busy street that foreigners often walk along, but maybe have missed. Pizzaiolo can be found on the 2nd floor of the Xi-U Shopping Center on the street in between Way-Gook Way and Traveler’s Bar. If you’re looking at the Xi-U Shopping Center, you’ll see the outside stairs to Holly’s Coffee. Take those stairs up, go left, and you’ll enter into the Pizzaiolo’s dining room. Pizzaiolo is very proud of their 500℃ brick oven pizzas, which I think they should be after I tasted them. The name Pizzaioloactually means ‘pizza master’. The fol-

lowing four pizzas are the favorites among foreigners: Margherita, Diavola, Formagi, and Calzone.The Margherita (12,900w) has a thick layer of tomato sauce that is covered with anabundant layer of moz-zarella cheese and topped with fresh basil. The Diavola (13,900w) is my undeniably favorite! It has spicy sa-lami, hot red pepper flakes, onions, mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese. The Formagi (14,900w) has five cheeses – mozzarella, cheddar, gorgonzola, cream cheese, and Grana Padano. The Calzone (14,900w) is not technically a pizza, but since it resembles a folded pizza, we will keep it in this category. It’s stuffed with

Page 10: December 2014 The Daegu Compass

10 DAEGU COMPASS 2014.DECEMBER http://daegucompass.comDaegu Foodie - Napoleon Brick Oven Pizza Right Here in Daegu

mozzarella, bacon, mushrooms, onions, and a little bit of tomato sauce. The Calzone also comes with a side salad on the same plate! These four pizzas are prepared in the traditional Napoli style, although Pizzaiolo does have fusion pizzas, like the RisoFormagi (12,900w); which is a layer of rice in a deep pan that is topped with five cheeses and baked in the oven.Each Pizzaiolo pizza is big enough for two people to share.They all come served on a wooden platter with a side of pickles, parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes. The dough is freshly made each day in the tra-ditional Napoli way, and only uses three ingredients! Whole tomatoes are imported from Italy, the cheese is 100% organic, and the EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil) is the highest quality you can get. Besides pizzas,Pizzaiolo also has a variety of pasta dish-es. We tried the Cream Pane and the Fomodoro Dimare. The Cream Pane (13,900w) is a creamy pasta loaded-with bacon, mushrooms, broccoli and onions served in a bread bowl. The Fomodoro Dimare (12,900w) is a spicy tomato seafood pasta that has shrimp, mussels, and octopus. It’s topped with cheese and baked in the oven to give the cheese acrunchy and gooey texture.The Big Platesare a great value for three people to share.

A pizza is served with a big metal pan of assorted goodies. The one we tried was the Formagi& Assort-ed (24,900w). A regular-sized Formagi Cheese Pizza is served with topokki, buffalo chicken, potato chips, var-ious French fries, corn salad, and ranch dipping sauce.Try one of the many Italian drinks, such as cocktails, mojitos, sangria, wine and beer alongside your meal. The Italian Cocktails come in 600ml glasses and have-sugaron the rim of the glass. We tried the Spumoni (8,000w) and the Campari Orange (7,000w). They are sweet and don’t have a very strong alcohol flavor. The Virgin Mojito, Raspberry Mojito, and Blueberry Mojito are all 7,000 won, but for an extra 1,000 won, you can add some rum! They are served in 900ml glass jars. These vibrantly colored drinks are a light and refreshing compliment to the flavorful food.Now that you know what type of food there is, here’s how to order. There will be a menu and a self-order sheet on the table. Just write down what you want in the sections that are provided, and take it to the counter by the kitchen. It’s super easy to order, because the menu has English descriptions, too! Plus, if you go during the weekdays at lunch time, you’ll get a nice English-speak-ing waiter. Any other day, the wait staff can answer sim-

ple questions in English so no worries.The promotions from November will carry on into Decem-ber! If you want to double the size of your pizza, just add 5,000 won. And, if one person can eat the Big Size pizza in 20 minutes or less, the pizza is FREE! Pizzaioloisan excellent location for a birthday party. You can use their screen projector for displaying a slide show of your birthday friend’s photos. Just simply reserve a section of the restaurant through their Facebook page: www.facebook.com/itpizzaiolo. Go on and challenge your birthday boy or girl to take the Big Size Pizza Challenge! One person has successfully accomplished it so far! Will the next one be you?Pizzaiolo is open seven days-a-week from 11 am to 11 pm, and their last order is at 10:30 pm. Now that you are craving some pizza, go check this place out and see what the other foreigners who’ve been there already are raving about!

Pan Asia is located in the downtown area on the busy street visited by many foreigners, which is the street behind the fire station (삼덕소방서) and the Catholic church (삼덕성당). Pan Asia is not a new restaurant, nor is it unknown. It’s actually one of the most common responses when someone is asked, “Where can I get good Southeast Asian food from Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia or Hong Kong?”

Pan Asia has had a few renovations to its interior, in-cluding new flooring, and a more open entrance. Also, Pan Asia’s owner, Jin-GyuBae, had a competition be-tween his chefs from the five other locations throughout Korea. Eleven chefs competed to make new dishes that hold true to Pan Asia’s concept of casualcomfort food for every age and nationality. The top four dishes are now the newest additions to the already popular dishes.

The newest menu items for Pan Asia, as of Novem-ber, now include: Red Curry and Shrimp Cutlet, Pepper Crab and Egg Fried Rice, Hong Kong Style Sizzling Chili Shrimp, and Thai Style Seafood Noodle Salad. These

four dishes have completely different fla-vors from each other. This means that there is something for everybody!

The Red Curry and Shrimp Cutlet (렌드커리&텃만꿍 - 15,000w) comes served in a beautiful bowl on a wooden platter. The hot and spicy curry is definitely my favorite. The curry is made with onions, tomatoes, cel-ery, chili, cauliflower, potatoes, and peppers. The two large breaded shrimp cutlets are handmade each day from fresh shrimp and are moist and not rubbery at all. If you are vegetarian or have allergies to shellfish, this dish is perfect for you, because you can substitute the shrimp for rice, spring rolls, or buns!

The Pepper Crab and Egg Fried Rice (페퍼크랩& 계란볶음밥 - 17,000w) is a beautiful sight to see. It’s one of the most unusual dishes they have for sure. The crab is deep fried and then cooked, making it completely okay to eat the shell and all! The crab is seasoned with sweet sauces that balance out the spiciness of the coarse ground black pepper. A good tip for this one is to eat the

Page 14: December 2014 The Daegu Compass

14 DAEGU COMPASS 2014.DECEMBER http://daegucompass.comDaegu Foodie - Southeast Asian Food: Something for Everyone

crab first. Then, mix the heaping pile of fried rice with the leftover sauce from the crab. This one has a wonderful flavor that I wanted more of, but get ready to get messy!

The Hong Kong Style Sizzling Chili Shrimp (홍콩스타일 시즐링 칠리 쉬림프 - 14,500w)has a vibrant red color that gives you a good warning that it will be spicy. I could not only hear the sizzling sound it made on the hot iron pan as it was brought to the table, but I could also smell the sweet and spicy aroma. The bite-sized shrimp are lightly battered and cooked in a sauce of different chilies, to include Thai chilies and Korean chilies. Some advice for this one, DON’T eat the red chilies if you can’t handle the heat! The sauce is great, but those little Thai chilies sure do pack a punch. Also, add a side of rice (1,000w) or some buns (3,000w) to help soak up all of the remaining sauce.

The Thai Style Seafood Noodle Salad (얌운센 - 10,000w) is a more subtle flavored dish. Various salad greens are the base for the thin glass Thai noodles and sweet and sour dressing. It’s topped with crispy breadedcalamari rings that add a good texture. This salad is a great pairing to a spicy dish.

We also got to try some additions from this year that haven’t been reviewed before. The General Tso Chick-en (젠너럴쏘 치킨 - 16,000w) is by far my favorite one in Daegu. The Malaysia Cereal Shrimp (말레이시아 시리얼 쉬림프 - 15,000w) isa unique dish that I’ve never tried before. Unpeeled jumbo shrimp are coated in an oat cereal that is imported directly from Malaysia. It’s crunchy, sweet, and a little bit salty.

When Pan Asia first opened up in January 2012, I was a regular customer who would go at least once a week. One of my staple meals was the Pad See Ew (팟씨유 - 10,000w). Thin square rice noodles are cooked with beef, onions, and Thai Chili Peppers. And, you know what? It is even better now! Jin-Gyu has also added a Thai Ice Tea Bucket (타이 아이스티 - 8,000w). The sweet, milky black tea is flavored just right with a cinna-mon stick and star anise. Just make sure to stir it up to get the full mixture of flavors!

Currently there is a special promotion, along with the coupon that is accompanied with this article. The deal is if you order one of Pan Asia’s NEW menu dishes on se-lect days, your table will get one Mojito Bucket (non-al-coholic) for FREE!Monday and Tuesday:Thai Style Sea-food Noodle Salad (얌운센) OR Red Curry and Shrimp Cutlet (렌드커리&텃만꿍) / Wednesday and Thursday: Hong Kong Style Sizzling Chili Shrimp (홍콩스타일 시즐링 칠리 쉬림프) OR Pepper Crab and Egg Fried Rice (페퍼크랩& 계란볶음밥).

Now, take a taxi to Samduck Fire Station (삼덕소방서) or the subway to downtown and head towards Way-Gook Way–Check out the map in the back for exact location! The staff is friendly and can speak enough English to help you with your ordering needs! Pan Asia is open every day from 11 am to 11 pm, with the last order at 10 pm.Every Tuesday, however, they have a break from 3-5 pm to have a staff meeting to deal with complaints and improvements. So, check out their Facebook page for updates on any closings, menu updates, and specials: www.facebook.com/panasiafood.

Hyundai's Food Court Holds Serve

Quick Eats In Hyundai

Written and photographed by Annie Chen / Translated by Yujeong Lee

If you're in downtown Daegu, near Banwoldang, and you want to grab a quick bite to eat, make your way down to Hyundai Department Store. Located on their first underground floor, you will find a food court with a variety of different cuisines. It's always a great place to eat when you're indecisive and you don't want to go to an actual sit down restaurant. The food court offers yummy gourmet desserts as well!

만약에 대구 중심가인 반월당 근처에서 급하게 요기를 해결하고 싶다면, 현대백화점으로 발걸음을 돌려라. 백화점 지하 1층에 다양한 종류의 메뉴가 갖춰진 푸드코트가 있다. 뭘 먹을 지 결정을 못 할 때나 갖춰진 식당에 가기 싫을 때에는 언제나 이 곳이 최고다. 현대백화점 푸드코트에 는 끝내주는 디저트도 있다!

My favorite go to spot down in the food court is, India Gate Express. My boyfriend and I frequent this place so much that the Korean woman who works there always

recognizes us and knows our order. They offer all types of naan, chicken, beef, and lamb curries. They have mild to spicy spice levels, so make sure you let them know what you want. I recommend the mild chicken curry naan set. It will cost you under 10,000w. The food is prepared quickly with great customer service.

푸드코트 내에서 필자가 가장 좋아하는 곳은 인디아 게이트 익스프레스이다. 남자친구와 하도 자주 이 곳에 들러서 이 곳에서 일하는 한국인 아주머니는 우리를 알아보고 주문도 알아서 해주신다. 온갖 종류의 난, 닭고기, 쇠고기, 양고기 카레가 갖춰져 있고, 순한 맛에서 매운 맛까지 매운 맛 레벨이 있으니 원하는 대로 주문하면 된다. 개인적으로는 순한 맛의 닭고기 카레 난 세트를 추천하며 가격은 1만원 미만이다. 접객 서비스도 좋고 음식도 빨리 나온다.

Another place, that has recently open up in the food court is Pan Asia Express. The actual sit down restau-rant is located near Thursday Party Burger and Pasta

downtown, but if you want a quick fix, go to their express location. Here they offer spring rolls, coconut shrimp, your Thai and Malaysian noodle dishes, and then your fried rice dishes. I recommend the coconut shrimp and Asian beef rice. All their prices are also under 10,000w. One of the chefs, Adam speaks great English consider-ing he's worked at a Michelin star restaurant in New York for 3 years. Their staff is super nice to chat with when they have a free second.

다른 추천 장소는 푸드코트 내에서 최근에 오픈한 곳으로 팬아시아 익스프레스이다. 본점은 시내의 썰스데이 파티 버거 앤 파스타 근처에 자리잡고 있지만, 신속한 식사를 원한다면 익스프레스 지점으로 가봐라. 이 곳에서는 스프링롤, 코코넛 쉬림프, 태국과 말레이시아의 면요리, 볶음밥 등을 먹을 수 있다. 추천메뉴는 코코넛 쉬림프와 아시안 비프 라이스이고, 모든 메뉴의 가격은 1만원 미만이다. 요리사 중 한 사람인 아담은 뉴욕의 미슐렝 레스토랑에서 3년간 일을 했기에 영어를 유창하게 하며, 종업원 모두가 시간이 있을 때는 잠시 수다를 떨어줄 만큼 매우 친절하다.

One of the last places I would recommend is Kokoro Bento. This place is a little more expensive, but they serve decent Japanese bento boxes. I tried their Way-gu beef bento box and it was delicious! The beef was cooked so well and it was very fresh. The bento box came with all types of veggies and sides on top and they were definitely made to order. They also serve chick-en curry, seared tuna, and many other types of bento boxes.

마지막으로 추천할 곳은 코코로 벤또이다. 이 곳을 조금 더 비싼 곳이지만 제대로 된 일식 도시락을 맛볼 수 있다. 와규 도시락을 먹어봤는데 정말 맛있었다! 쇠고기는 조리가 잘 되었고 매우 신선했다. 도시락에는 각종 채소와 곁반찬이 밥 위에 올려져서 나오고 주문을 하면 조리를 시작한다. 그 외에 치킨 카레, 타다끼 참치 등등 다양한 종류의 도시락이 준비되어 있다.

And of course, definitely don't forget to check out Go-diva for all you chocolate lovers out there. It is new-ly open near the back of the food court. I will warn you that it's quite pricey, but everything is reasonable in moderation. They have soft serve chocolate ice cream, chocolate shakes, etc. So next time you want a quick bite to eat downtown, check out the food court located in Hyundai Department Store located at exit 18 in Banwoldang Station.

그리고 아주 당연히, 초콜렛 마니아들은 고디바에 잊지 말고 반드시 들러야 한다. 매장은 최근 푸드 코드 뒤쪽에 새롭게 문을 열었다. 꽤 비싸다는 것을 미리 말해주지만 모든 제품들이 적당히 합리적인 가격이긴 하다. 초콜렛 소프트 아이스크림, 초콜렛 쉐이크 등등을 갖추고 있다. 그러니 다음 번에 시내에서 급하게 요기를 하고 싶다면 반월당역 18번 출구에 위치한 현대백화점의 푸드코트에 들러보라.

22 DAEGU COMPASS 2014.DECEMBER http://daegucompass.comSpecial Reports - I Have Lived Today

Interview by Scott McLaughlin / Translated by Yujeong Lee / Artwork submitted by Steven MooreFirst Novel and Interview With Steven Moore

I Have Lived Today

A fellow Daeguite has just published his first book. Check out, I Have Lived Today, a novel by Steven Moore: www.TwentyFirstCenturyNomad.com

Excerpt :England. 1960s. A cold, harsh autumn. On an isolated island, an abusive man forces his wife to run for her life. Their son Tristan, young and afraid, also flees the island and sets out into the world to escape his demons and find his mother.

발췌 :1960년대 영국. 춥고 가혹한 가을. 어느 고립된 섬에 폭력적인 한 남자가 그의 아내를 도망가게 만든다. 어리고 겁에 질린 그들의 아들 트리스탄 역시 악마와 같은 아버지에게서 도망치고 엄마를 찾기 위해 섬을 떠나 바깥 세상으로 나가게 된다.

Hitchhiking beneath the backdrop of a wild and loveless November, Tristan encounters every possible character, from the genuinely kind to the inherently wicked. Beat-en, robbed and stripped of even hope, Tristan finds him-self on the gritty streets of London’s East End, where everything he thought he knew about life starts to shat-ter and crumble around him. With all hope seemingly lost, a young boy even questions the futility of life itself. But when he learns that there are others who share his torment and understand his pain, can Tristan find the courage to make it through his darkest hours?

거칠고 매정한 11월이 되어, 트리스탄은 순수하게 친절한 사람부터 천성적으로 사악한 사람들까지 모든 종류의 사람들과 마주치게 된다. 폭행을 당하고 강도를 당하고 희망마저 찢겨진 채, 모래투성이인 런던의 이스트엔드에 다다른다. 그가 삶에 대한 알고 있다고 생각한 모든 것들이 그의 주위로 흩어지고 부스러지기 시작한 곳으로 말이다. 모든 희망들이 사라지는 듯 보이고 어린 소년은 삶의 헛됨에 대해서까지 질문하게 된다. 하지만 그의 고통을 공유하고 고통을 이해해주는 다른 사람이 있다는 것을 알게 되었을 때 트리스탄은 그의 어두운 시기를 이겨나갈 용기를 찾을 수 있을가?

Tristan's tale is a grim exploration into his own con-science. As he discovers the unique ability of humans to do such heinous things both to themselves and to one another, it's all he can do to keep control as his passage of internal discovery takes one dark turn after another and sends him to the edge.

트리스탄의 이야기는 그의 양심에 대한 암울한 탐험이다. 그는 사람들이 아주 악랄한 짓을 그들 스스로와 다른 사람들에게 하는 독특한 능력이 있다는 것을 발견하게 된다. 이에 내면을 발견해나가는 그의 길이 어떠한 일 뒤에 암울한 방향으로 전개되고 그를 극한으로 내모는 동안 스스로를 통제하는 것만이 그가 할 수 있는 전부이다.

Bio :My name’s Steve, and I’m a forty-year-old Englishman who has just moved back to Daegu after living in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico with my freelance journal-ist fiancé Leslie Patrick. Quite simply, I’ve been living a nomadic lifestyle for twenty years, and having visited almost fifty countries across six continents, and lived in places as diverse as Korea, Thailand, France, Australia and now Mexico, I don’t see that lifestyle ever changing. When I’m not teaching E.S.L in Korea, you can usually find me swinging in a hammock in South East Asia, hik-ing the trails of South America, or chilling with a book in my garden in San Miguel.

이력 : 나의 이름은 스티브이며 약혼자이며 프리랜서 저널리스트인 레슬리 패트릭과 함께 멕시코의 산미구엘 데 알렌데를 떠나 방금 대구로 돌아온 40세 영국 남자이다. 꽤 단순하게, 나는 20년 동안 여기저기 떠돌아다니며 살고 있으며, 6개 대륙을 통틀어 50여개의 나라에 가 본적이 있고, 한국, 태국, 프랑스, 호주, 이제는 멕시코는 다양한 장소에서 거주했다. 이러한 삶의 방식이 바뀔 것 같지 않다. 한국에서 영어를 가르치지 않은 때에는 동남아시아에서 해먹 위에 늘어져 있거나 남아메리카에서 길을 따라 하이킹을 하거나 산 미구엘에 있는 나의 정원에서 책을 읽으며 한가롭게 지내고 있다.

How has the experience of writing your first novel impacted your life?

Writing my first novel has shown me two things: First, publishing my debut novel was the fulfilling of a dream, and has shown me that if you want something enough, then anything is possible. And I've now realized that I'm a very passionate writer, meaning it has now become my number one ambition in terms of a possible career. I've flirted with varying projects, painting, travel guid-ing...even becoming a 'real' teacher. But writing is the one.

그 것은 두 가지를 나에게 보여주었다. 첫번째로 내 데뷔작을 출판해낸 것은 꿈을 이룬 것이었으며 만약 당신이 충분히 무언가를 원한다면 무엇이든지 가능하다는 것을 보여주었다. 그리고 지금 나는 내가 열정적인 작가라는 것을 깨달

았으며, 커리어 적인 면에서 나의 가장 첫번째 야망이 되었다는 것을 뜻한다. 나는 그림 그리기, 여행 가이드하기, 심지어 ‘진짜’ 선생님하기 등 여러가지 일을 해 왓다. 하지만 글쓰는 것이 진짜이다.

What were the hardest parts to write about? What did you do to overcome times of doubt during the writing process?

Writing about the continued physical abuse of a child was tough. Fortunately, I don't have any personal expe-rience to draw upon, but even to imagine what my main protagonist went through was at times very difficult. There were plenty of moments during the process of writing this book when I doubted the entire project. It took a long chunk of time when I wasn't earning a wage, and to think that it was probably time wasted because no one would ever read it caused me a lot of doubts. Luckily, my super supportive fiancée backed me the whole way, both financially and conscientiously.

쓰기 가장 어려웠던 부분은 어디였나? 글을 쓰는 과정에서 그런 의문이 드는 시간들을 극복하기 위해 무엇을 했나?

지속적으로 육체적인 학대를 당하는 아이에 대해 쓰는 것이 힘들었다. 다행히도 그런 내용을 끌어내기 위한 어떠한 개인적인 경험이 있지는 않지만, 주요 등장인물이 겪었던 것을 상상하는 것만으로도 때로는 매우 어려웠다. 이 책을 쓰는 동안에 전체적인 내용에 대해 확신을 가질 수 없었던 순간들이 많이 있었다. 내가 돈을 벌지 않았던 긴 시간도 있었고, 아마도 시간 낭비라고 생각했던 시간도 있었다. 왜냐하면 아무도 이 것을 읽지 않았기에 많은 의문이 들었다. 다행히도 약혼녀가 강하게 지지해주었고 경제적으로 마음적으로 모든 부분을 지원해주었다.

How much of the character's experience is taken from your own experience as a forty-year-old journeyman?

There are moments that I can totally relate to Tristan's tale. He's out there in the big scary world, discovering

many things, both good and bad, for the very first time, and in terms of travel I have drawn on some of my own experiences. In relation to his deeper personal issues, I could tell you, but some things are best left to the read-er's own interpretations.

40세의 여행가로써 당신의 경험을 얼마만큼 캐릭터에 반영을 시켰나?

트리스탄의 이야기에 완전히 관련시킨 순간들이 있다. 그는 좋은 것과 나쁜 것 모두를 포함해 많은 것을 발견해 내가며 처음으로 크고 무서운 세상에 나왔다. 그리고 여행적인 면에서는 내가 겪었던 경험들에서 차용했다. 그의 깊은 개인적인 문제들에 있어서는 내가 말해줄 수도 잇지만 독자들이 스스로 해석하는 것으로 남겨두는 것이 가장 좋을 듯 하다.

What do you want people to feel, think and experience while reading your character's

"tumultuous journey"?

I would be delighted if anyone who read this book felt an emotional connection to Tristan. Most of us at one time or another go through very difficult life adjustments and traumatic situations, and we learn a lot about ourselves and others in that process. And there are a few unex-pected revelations in his tale, which I hope cause a few surprises along the way. Mostly, I would like people to feel happy they took the time to read it.

사람들이 당신의 캐릭터가 “격동의 여행”을 하는 동안 무엇을 느끼고, 생각하고, 경험하길 바라는가?

이 책을 읽는 누구든지 트리스탄과 교감을 한다면 나는 기쁠 것이다. 우리 중 대다수는 언젠가 인생에서 매우 어려운 인생의 타협점과 트라우마적인 상황을 극복해내야 한다. 그리고 그러한 과정 속에서 우리는 우리스스로와 타인에 대해 많은 것을 배운다. 트리스탄의 이야기 속에는 몇몇 예기치 않게 드러나는 것들이 있는데 그 것을 읽는 와중에 사람들이 놀라기를 바란다. 무엇보다도 사람들이 이야기를 읽기 위해 시간을 들이는 것에 대해 행복해 하기를 원한다.

What advice would you give to someone with similar aspirations to write their first novel?

I believe everyone has a story to tell, whether imagined or from personal experiences. The NaNoWriMo pro-gram, or National Novel Writing Month, is a great way to start out. 1,666 words per day for a month = a 'Great Gatsby' length novel. My blog post about NaNoWriMo would be a useful tool to get you started.

첫 소설을 쓰려는 비슷한 포부를 가진 사람에게 어떤 조언을 주고 싶은가?

상상이든 개인적 경험으로부터든 모두가 들려줄 이야기가 있다고 생각한다. NaNoWriMo 프로그램이나 National Novel Writing Month로 시작하면 좋다. 한 달 동안 매일 1,666 단어를 쓰면 ‘위대한 개츠비’ 정도 길이의 소설이 된다. NaNoWriMo에 대한 나의 블로그 포스팅이 소설을 쓰기 시작하는 사람들에게 유용한 팁이 될 것이다.

How can we buy your book?

There are a couple of ways in which to get a hold of a copy of 'I Have Lived Today.'Kindle is the easiest.Search my book on KINDLE US or KINDLE UKPaperbacks are available too. There are two things to consider. Buying a paperback on Amazon is easy, but I make only $1 per sale. But that's fine, as I would hope-fully get an Amazon review too. If you'd like to help out a poor, starving author, the Createspace is best. The cost to buyers is the same, but I make a few more dollars. In reality, I'd be grateful for any purchases.

당신의 책은 어떻게 구입할 수 있는가?

‘I Have Lived Today’를 구입할 수 있는 방법이 몇가지 있다. 다음 링크로 가보면 된다.킨들에서 가장 쉬운 방법인데 KINDLE US나 KINDLE UK로 가서 검색을 하면 된다. 인쇄본도 가능하다. 아마존에서 구입하는 것이 쉽지만 이 경우 본인은 권당 1달러만 수입이 발생한다. 그래도 괜찮다. 아마존 리뷰를 얻을 수 있기를 바란다. 만약 이 가난하고 굶주린 작가를 도와주고 싶다면 Createspace가 가장 좋은 방법이다.

What's next for you? Will there be a new book in the near future based

off the same character or are you planning on taking us on another wild adventure?

I think my next book might be a travelogue. I've visited 49 countries to date, and I have plenty of tales to tell. However, I do have a kind of follow up to 'I Have Lived Today' in mind. It won't be a direct continuation of the story, but rather, I'll take one of the peripheral characters and develop their story into a standalone tale. I'm excit-ed to get started on that soon.

다음 계획은 어떻게 되는가? 가까운 시일 내에 같은 캐릭터로 새 책을 낼 것인지

아니면 다른 모험을 들려줄 것 인가?

다음 책의 내용은 여행기가 될 것 같다. 이제껏 49개의 나라를 가 봣고 들려줄 이야기가 가득하다. 하지만 ‘I Have Lived Today’의 내용을 덧붙일 생각이 있다. 이야기가 직접적으로 이어지는 것을 아니다. 오히려 주변 캐릭터 중 하나를 잡아서 독립된 이야기로 발전시킬 것이다. 곧 시작할 것이라 기대가 된다.

DonationsSince one of the central themes of my novel is the physical abuse of a child, then I feel it's appropriate that I donate 10% of all royalties to the N.S.P.C.C, the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Chil-dren, an excellent U.K. based charity. Each purchase of my novel will help out the kids a little, so we can all feel like we're contributing to a better world, if only just a little.

기부내 소설의 주요한 테마 가운데 하나가 아동의 신체적인 학대이기에 인세의 10%를 영국의 자선단체인 아동보호협회에 기부를 하는 것이 맞다고 생각한다. 책을 구입하면 그 아이들을 조금이나마 돕게 되면, 조금이나마 우리가 더 나은 세상을 위해 공헌한다고 생각할 수 있다.

LOVE146 Empowering The People

Battling Child Trafficking And ExploitationInterview by Scott McLaughlin / Photos by Ashleigh Barker

Love146 seeks to rise up and equip new Abolitionists as well as give greater momentum to effective grassroots efforts. No single effort will bring about the Abolition of child trafficking and exploitation — it will be a move-

ment united with a collective shout. Traffickers are highly organized in their crime – we must be more organized in our movement to undo and abolish their work. This requires listening to those who know what’s up.

This requires networking to build relationships and communities committed to ending this atrocity. This requires audacity. This requires empowering a movement of Love.

What exciting events or plans do you have coming up in the next few months?SANTACON! On December 20th, Love146 will be donning their Holiday apparel and gallivanting around downtown. We will be spreading cheer by singing loud-ly for all to hear! We are teaming up with local univer-sity students and volunteers to go caroling. Everyone in Daegu is invited to come out, sing along and take photos. Between carols, we will be warming up in local coffee shops and bars. We also have a movie night in the works for February so keep an eye on Facebook for details about that.

How can people get involved? What's the level of commitment you expect from people?We always love to have volunteers! Whether you are able to donate baked goods, clothes for a swap, or just your time we are happy to have you. The current task-force (usually about 10 people, full time) is full, so we are only looking for part-time volunteers at this point. However, we will be looking to start a new taskforce in late spring, as we get ready for the annual scavenger hunt. So, the more the merrier. Even if you can't volun-teer -- come participate in our events! Love146 will be at the Daegu Clubs and Resources Day on December

Page 29: December 2014 The Daegu Compass

6th if anyone wants to come learn more.

Do you collaborate with any other organizations or do you just focus on what you can do from Daegu?Love146 is actually a global organization. So our chapter only operates in Daegu, but there are groups around the world who are working towards a common goal: to end child trafficking. Love146 seeks to abolish child trafficking and exploitation through rehabilitation, education, training, and grassroots empowerment groups, that's where we come in! We are a small, lo-cal group who are using the academic support that Love146 provides to understand the complex problem of trafficking and in return raising money to help sup-port Love146. We do collaborate with lots of local businesses and groups within Daegu itself. Buy the Book, Travelers, Little Italia, and The Style Guesthouse (and so many more) have all been avid Love146 supporters! How involved are the South Korean members of the Taskforce? Several South Korean volunteers gave us a huge hand translating flyers, transliterating carols, and hawking baked goods. They are so eager to help and we are very thankful for their time and translation skills. How-ever, the actual core taskforce requires a significant time commitment and at this time there are no Korean core taskforce members, just volunteers -- which is great too!

What are some challenges you have experienced as the organizer? How do you overcome them?It's so great to work with people who are engaged and caring. Having a task force that is constantly and enthusiastically ready to do whatever is required has alleviated so many of the problems that can come with a large group of people working together.

Time is, actually, the most challenging aspect. When we plan events we have to not only work around 10 schedules, our venues, but also the Waygook cal-endar. Daegu has got a lot going on and we have so much to do! Our group has (too) many ideas and not nearly enough time to do it all. So, we prioritize, we are flexible, and we divide and conquer as much as possible.

The Changing Fall Leaves

A Time Of TransformationWritten and photographed by Erin Hassanzadeh / Translated by Yujeong Lee

It’s pretty remarkable - the crisp fall breeze feels the same no matter where in the world you are. 꽤 놀라운 일이다. 이 서늘한 가을 바람은 세계 어디에 있든지 똑같다.

When the cool, autumn air sweeps through this city – I swear, there’s no better feeling. Fall is synonymous with change. The start of this transformative season brings the potential to start anew.

시원한 가을바람이 이 도시를 휩쓸 때면 이보다 더 좋은 느낌은 없음을 확신한다. 가을은 변화의 동의어이다.

The idea of starting-over can be as intoxicating as the fall air itself.

새로 시작한다는 개념은 가을 공기 그 자체만큼이나 들뜨게 한다.

For me, the familiar, cool fall breeze has this ability to put me in a trance. I can put my headphones in, stroll down the street and forget – even if for only a moment - where I am.

내게는, 익숙하고 시원한 가을 바람이 나를 흥분상태로 만들

수 있는 그런 능력이 있다. 헤드폰을 쓰고, 거리를 걸어 다니며 단 한 순간이라도 내가 어디에 있는지 잊어버릴 수 있다.

I snap out of my fall-induced trance to frantically dodge the deceptively attractive, mustard colored 은행 fruit blossoms that fall from the trees in sync with the drop-ping leaves. I still think it’s strange that such a beautiful fruit can smell so awful.

나는 나를 기만하는 어떠한 매력을 미친 듯이 피하기 위해 가을이 만들어내는 트랜스 상태에서 깨어나게 된다. 그 것은 바로 떨어지는 나뭇잎과 함께 나무에서 떨어진 겨자색의 은

행 열매이다. 나는 여전히 그런 아름다운 열매의 냄새가 그렇게 지독하다는 것은 이상하다고 생각한다A long, intense stare from a stranger is another guaran-teed way to wake me and remind me, “You’re not from around here.” “You’re a foreigner…and you look like a foreigner…so people stare.” The strangers passing by on the street are too snapped out of their daily routines to stare and wonder, “What is she doing here?”

낯선 이들로부터 받는 길고 집요한 눈길은 나를 일깨워주고 상기시켜 주는 또 다른 확실한 방법이다. “너는 이 곳 사람이 아냐.” “너는 외국인이야. 그리고 넌 외국인 같이 생겼어. 그

래서 사람들이 빤히 보는 거야.” 길에 지나가는 사람들은 빤히 쳐다보며 “쟤는 여기서 뭐하고 있는 거지?”라고 궁금해하기엔 그들의 일상생활에서 너무 제정신이다.

I didn’t come to Korea for a job.

나는 한국에 일하러 온 것이 아니다. Let me rephrase that: I came to Korea for much more than just a job. I came to challenge myself and to make a transformation.

다시 말해 보겠다. 나는 한국에 일하는 것 이상의 더 많은 것을 위해 왔다. 나는 스스로에 도전하기 위해서 왔으며 변화를 만들어 내기 위해 왔다.

I am here serving as a Fulbright Korea Grantee. Which means I work as an English Teaching Assistant at a public school. The United States Fulbright Scholarship Program selects recent graduates to come serve not only as English teachers, but as “cultural ambassa-dors.”

나는 이곳에 풀브라이트 한국프로그램 수혜자로 왔다. 즉, 공립학교에서 영어를 가르치는 보조 선생님으로 일을 하는 것이다. 미국 풀브라이트 장학 프로그램은 영어 선생님으로만 일할 사람이 아니라 “문화 대사”로도 역할을 다 할 수 있는 최근의 대학졸업생을 선정했다

The Fulbright Korea program is centered around the idea that grantees will have a “dual” experience during their time in this country. Not only working as a teach-er but taking serious time and consideration to pur-posefully experience Korean life. We come to Korea knowing we will live with a host family to help us do just that. Our job goes beyond teaching classes. We are sharing our culture and language with Korean peo-ple and in exchange, we’re absorbing as much about Korean culture as we possibly can. The idea being that we will share our discoveries about Korea with our friends, families and communities back in America.

풀브라이트 한국 프로그램은 수혜자들이 이 나라에 머무는 동안 “이중”의 경험을 하도록 하는 것에 중심을 두고 있다. 선생님으로써 일하는 것뿐만 아니라 한국인의 삶을 목적 의식을 가지고 경험하기 위해 진지한 시간을 가지고 생각을 해야 한다. 우리는 그 것을 도와줄 호스트 가족과 함께 지낼 것이라는 것을 알고 한국에 온다. 우리가 하는 일은 학생들을 가르치는 것 이상의 것이기도 하다. 한국인들과 함께 우리의 문화와 언어를 나누고, 반대로 가능한 한

한국의 문화에 대해 많은 것을 흡수하고 배운다. 한국에 대해 발견한 것을 친구, 가족 그리고 미국 내의 커뮤니티와 공유하는 것도 있다.

There are 13 Fulbright teachers here in Daegu but the Fulbright Korea program has well over 100 English Teaching Assistants scattered in different cities through-out the country. It would be an understatement to call our group a random bunch. We have aspiring doctors, professors and journalists. We have history buffs and IT geniuses. We have people who can speak Korean fluently, people whose extended families live here in Ko-rea and people who couldn’t even read Hangul before stepping off the plane. So labeling our group as “ran-dom” doesn’t quite begin to cover it. And our motivation for coming to Korea varies as much as our future job aspirations.

대구에는 13명의 풀브라이트교사가 있으나 풀브라이트 한국 프로그램에는 100명이 넘는 영어교육 어시스턴트가 전국에 각기 다른 도시에 흩어져 있다. 우리 그룹을 무작위로 구성되었다고 요약할 수도 있겠다. 우리는 미래의 의사들이고 교수, 저널리스트이다. 그리고 역사 매니아가 있고, IT 천재가 있다. 우리 중에는 한국어를 유창하게 할 수 이는 사람들이 있고, 친척 중에 여기 한국에 사는 사람들도 있으며 비행기에서 발을 딛기 전까지 한글을 읽을 수도 없는 사람들도 있다. 그러니 우리 그룹을 “무작위”라고 딱지를 붙이는 것은 모두를 다 포용하기엔 도저히 어려울 것 같다. 그리고 한국으로 오게 된 동기도 우리의 장래 희망만큼이나 다양하다.

I’m here to make a transformation; to transform into a more cultured and understanding person. I’m here to experience the nuances of daily Korean life. Of course, I am also here to teach. I love my students and I prioritize them and their learning above everything else. 나는 이 곳에 변화를 위해서 왔다. 더 문화적이고 사람들을 이해하는 사람이 되기 위해 말이다. 한국의 일상적인 회화의 뉘앙스도 경험하고 있다. 물론 나는 이 곳에 가르치러 왔다. 나는 나의 학생들을 사랑하고 무엇보다도 아이들과 아이들의 배움을 가장 우선시 한다.

Page 35: December 2014 The Daegu Compass

But I’m here to learn that Koreans say if you make pret-ty 송편 (Songpyeon)during 추석 (Chuseok) you will have pretty babies. Or to learn than Korean families have separate kimchi fridges and that having a “small face” is beautiful by Korean standards. I’m here to see “couples outfits” in real life. (Let’s be honest, everyone remembers the first time they saw one in action.) I’m here to try to understand the tensions that still exist between Japan and Korea and to experience the American influence on Korean culture that came about as a result of the Korean War.

하지만 나는 이 곳에서 한국인들이 만약 추석에 예쁜 송편을 빚으면 예쁜 아기를 낳는다고 이야기 하는 것을 배우기 위해 있다. 혹은 한구인 가족들은 따로 김치 냉장고를 가지고 있으며 한국의 기준에 따르면 ‘작은 얼굴’이 아름답다는 것을 알게 되었다. 그리고 실제 생활에서 ‘커플룩’을 보기 위해서 왔다. (솔직해 지자. 모두들 실제로 커플룩을 본 첫 순간을 기억하고 있다.) 나는 일본과 한국 사이에 아직도 남아있는 긴장관계를 이해하기 위해 있으며 한국전쟁의 결과로 나타난 한국문화 내의 미국 문화의 영향을 경험해보기 위해 있다.

I’m here to stroll down the street and breath-in the crisp, fall breeze. I’m here to experience the little, insignificant moments of life in a different part of the world.

나는 거리를 걸어 다니며 서늘한 바람을 들여 마시기 위해 이 곳에 있다. 나는 세계의 다른 편에서 작고 사소한 인생의 순간을 경험하기 위해 이 곳에 있다.

Growing up in America, fall always represented a fresh start for me. It was the start of a new school year and the time for back-to-school shopping with my mom for new note-books and pencils.

미국에서 자랐기에 가을은 항상 내게 새로운 시작을 의미한다. 새로운 학년의시작이고 엄마와 함께 새 노트와 연필을 사러 학교생활 준비 쇼핑을 해야 하는 때이기도 하다. This year, that autumn air certainly represents a new start - but not the start of a new school year or even a new job. It’s the start of my transformation into be-coming a more understanding person - a person who accepts and tries to understand the culture of this

country. Taking the good with the not so good - the crisp, fall air with a few of the beautiful yet pungent 은행 blossoms. 올해는 가을 공기가 확실히 새로운 시작을 의미하긴 한다. 하지만 새로운 학년이나 새로운 직업의 시작은 아니다. 이번에는 더 이해심이 많은 사람으로 변하기 위한 시작이다. 이 나라의 문화에 대해 이해하려고 노력하고, 문화를 받아들이려는 사람 말이다. 좋지 않은 것과 좋은 것을 같이 받아들이기. 이 아름답지만 코를 찌르는 은행과 함께 있는 서늘한 가을 공기처럼 말이다

36 DAEGU COMPASS 2014.NOVEMBER http://daegucompass.comTravel and Nature - Beauty Comes In All Shapes and Sizes

So, why you should make a holiday to a small city north of Daegu in which the city is called "Korea's Industrial Capital"? Yes, the city of Gumi (which is about 30 min-utes north of Daegu in Gyeongsanbuk-do) has many factories and companies like LG, Samsung, Toray, LS, and Hanhwa but despite all the factories and compa-nies, there is a place that you and your family can spend a whole day at and have a good time too. "한국의 산업수도"라고 불리며 대구의 북쪽에 위치한 작은 도시에서 왜 휴일을 보내야할까? 그렇다. 구미(경북내에 있으며 대구에서 30분 떨어져서 위치해 있음)에는 LG, 삼성, 토레이, LS, 한화와 같은 많은 공장과 회사들이 있다. 하지만 이런 곳들 외에도 가족과 함께 하루 종일 좋은 시긴을 보낼 수 있는 곳이 있다.

Many Daegu residents know well about Gumi because many of them are company workers that take bus or their own car to Gumi to work there almost everyday. But, Gumi has more to offer than just hard, tiring work-ing hours at major companies. 많은 대구 사람들이 거의 매일 구미로 버스나 자가용을 타고 출퇴근하는 공장의 근로자이기에 구미에 대해 잘 알고 있다. 하지만 구미에는 회사에서의 힘들고 피곤한 직장생활 외에도 더 많은 것들이 있다.

Page 37: December 2014 The Daegu Compass

Inside this city with the population around 500,000 people is Geumosan Provincial Park. It is not as fa-mous as Palgongsan, but it still has a lot to offer for families that want to get out the big city life and just want to take a short drive somewhere close to Daegu.오십만명의 인구가 사는 구미에는 금오도립공원이 있다. 팔공산만큼 유명하지는 않지만 대도시의 생활을 벗어나고 싶거나 대구 가까이로 드라이브를 하고 싶을 가족들에게는 즐길 거리가 가득하다.

First, let’s talk about Geumosan or Geumo Mountain. Geumosan is a mountain that reaches the peak of 977 meters surrounding the Gumi area in Gyeongsangbuk Province. 먼저 금오산에 대해 이야기해보자. 금오산은 해발 977m이며 경상북도에서 구미를 둘러싸고 있다.

Geumosan Provincial Park is the major park surround-ing Geumo Mountain. As all provincial parks, there is a lot to do here. First you can see Korea’s National Treasure #490, the Maebosal Statue of Mt. Geumo. This is a 5.5 meter high statue curved on a natural rock that is right below the top of the mountains. 금오산도립공원은 금오산을 둘러싸고 있는 주요한 공원이다. 모든 도립공원처럼 이곳에도 할 것들이 많다. 가장 먼저 국보 제490호 금오산마애보살입상을 볼 수 있다. 이 불상은 5.5m나 되는 높은 입상으로 산 정상 바로 아래에 있는 자연석에 새겨져 있다.

Along a beautiful lake is Geumosan Ollegil. This is a trail for walking around Geumo Lake and it is sup-posed to give you blessings, good health and make all of your dreams come true. This is a popular place for night dates with the one that you love. 금오산 올레길은 아름다운 호수를 따라 있다. 이 길은 금오호수 주위를 걸을 수 있고 좋은 시간과 건강, 꿈이 이뤄지는 순간을 맛볼 수 있게 해준다. 사랑하는 사람과의 야간 데이트 장소로도 인기있는 곳이다.

If you decide to hike up the mountain, you will see some very beautiful and historical sites including Ge-umo Mountain Fortress (which is Monument #67 in Gyeongbuk-do Province). This mountain fortress came from the Goryeo Dynasty with the outer wall be-ing 3,500 meters long and the inner wall being 2,700 meters long. 등산을 하기로 했다면 금오산성(경상북도사적 제67호)을 포함한 매우 아름다운 역사적인 장소를 볼 수 있을 것이다. 이 산성은 고려시대부터 내려온 것이며 외벽의 길이는

-continued on p38-

3,500m, 내벽의 길이는 2,700m에 달한다. As you continue up the mountain, you see Daehye Wa-terfall. This waterfall is 400 meters above the foot of the mountain which is about halfway to the top. It is 27 meters long. In the winter, the waterfall freezes giving it an amazing sight to see as it looks like an ice castle, or falling ice stuck in the air. 산을 계속 올라가다보면 대혜폭포를 만나게 될 것이다. 이 폭포는 산 아래서 꼭대기까지 절반의 높이에 해당하는 해당하는 400m 지점에 있으며 높이는 27m이다. 겨울에는 폭포가 얼어붙어 마치 얼음성이나 공중에 얼음이 멈춰선 듯 보여 장관을 이룬다.

To the right side of the waterfall is a cave. The cave is Doseon Cave. This cave’s history starts with a great monk named Doseon who attained Nirvana in this cave. This cave is on the edge of a cliff which makes it a very interesting but a little difficult and dangerous hike. 폭포의 오른쪽에는 동굴이 있는데 도선굴이다. 동굴의 유례는 도선대사가 열반에 들었는데서 시작된다. 동굴은 절벽의 가장자리에 있어서 흥미를 불러 일으키지만 등산을 하기엔 어렵고 위험하다.

As you get to the top of the mountain, you will see the mountain’s temple called Yaksa Temple. This temple is located on the cliff at the top of the mountain and it is said to be built in honor a great monk named Uisang. 정상에 다다르면 약사암을 보게 될 것이다. 이 곳은 정상의 절벽 위에 자리 잡고 있으면 의상대사를 기리기 위해 지어졌다고 한다.

Of course if you do not feel like hiking to the 2 to the 3 hours hike up to the top of the mountain, you can take a cable car as Geumosan has a Cable Car Station. And at the entrance of Geumosan Provincial Park is a scenic spot called, Chaemi Pavillion. This was built in the 44th year of King Yeongjo in the Chosun Dynasty and it is to honor the loyalty of a great scholar named Scholar Gil Jae.2~3시간 동안 정상까지 등산을 하고 싶지 않다면 금오산에는 케이블카가 있으니 케이블카를 타면 된다. 금오산도립공원 입구에는 채미정이라는 아름다운 건물이 있다. 채미정은 조선시대 영조 44년에 길재 선생을 기리기 위해 지어졌다.

Plus if you are hungry, as every mountain parks in Ko-rea, you can eat Korean’s famous mountain food of 파전 and 동동주. Plus there are many festivals that happen

every year at Geumosan as well as motels, convenient stores and coffee shops to visit. Plus, there is even a very popular instant coffee (and other hot drinks) vend-ing machine across from Geumo Lake that hundreds of visitors buy cheap instant coffee and other hot drinks. It might be Gumi’s most popular place for coffee. Geumo Lake also has duck boats to enjoy in the summer. 그리고 허기가 지면 다른 한국의 산과 마찬가지로 유명한 산에서의 만찬인 파전과 동동주를 먹으면 된다. 게다가 수많은 모텔, 편의점, 카페뿐만 아니라 수많은 축제도 매년 열린다. 또한 금오 호수 건너편에는 수백명의 방문객들이 값싼 인스턴트 커피와 따뜻한 음료를 뽑아 마시는 매우 인기많은 자판기가 있다. 아마 이곳이 커피로 기장 인기가 있는 곳일 것이다. 여름 금오 호수에서는 오리보트도 즐길 수 있다.

In Korea, there are so many big amusement parks in-cluding one right here in Daegu called, E-World. But just as amazing as these big amusement parks are so is the smallest amusement park in Korea. Where is the small-est amusement park in Korea? Well, believe it or not, you don't have to travel far. 한국에는 대구에 있는 이월드를 비롯해 많은 대형 놀이공원이 있다. 하지만 대형 놀이공원이 재미있는 만큼 한국에서 가장 작은 놀이공원도 재미있다. 한국에서 가장 작은 놀이공

원은 어디에 있을까? 믿든지 말든지 멀리 가지 않아도 된다.

It is at the base of Geumo Mountain in Gumi and it is called Geumo Land. The smallest amusement park in Korea has the usual rides for everyone as all amuse-ment parks have like bumper cars, carousel, a bike that you can ride above and around the amusement park, a small playground, via train as well as a very scary and high Viking ship (a mini Viking for the children) and tagada. If you don't know what tagada is, well according to Wikipedia, tagada is where riders sit in a round bowl with no seatbelts but bars are behind the doors which they hold onto. Then the ride starts to spin, the music plays and with the help of hydraulic arms, the rides start to bounce up and down.구미의 금오산 아래에 금오랜드라고 불리는 놀이 공원이 있다. 한국에서 가장 작은 이 놀이 공원은 아주 무섭고 높이 올라가는 바이킹(사실, 어린이들을 위한 미니 바이킹이다.)과 타가다뿐만 아니라 범퍼카, 회전목마, 공중 자전거, 작은 놀이터, 기차 등 모든 놀이 공원이 갖추고 있는 대개의 탈것들을 갖추고 있다. 타가다가 뭔지 모른다면, 위키피디아에 따르면 이러하다. 타가다는 탑승자가 둥근 그릇에 안전벨트 없이 앉으며 문뒤에 잡아야 하는 바가 있다. 그리고 타가다가 돌아가기 시작하면 음악이 흘러나오고 기계에 연결된 수압 막대로 인해 탑승자들은 위아래로 튕겨진다.

Also there is a skating rink inside the park (which is open all year around), an outdoor swimming pool (in the summer only) and sled riding (for winter only). 공원 안에는 스케이트링크(1년 내내 개장), 야외수영장(여름에만 개장), 썰매장(겨울에마 개장)도 있다.

Geumosan and Geumo Land is a very short drive from Daegu area or you can take a short train ride and then it is a 15 minute walk from the Gumi Train Station. The hours are from 10:00am to 6:00pm on weekdays and 10:00am to 7:00pm on weekends (from March to Sep-tember). During the offseason months (October to Feb-ruary), the park opens at 9:30am and closes at 5:30pm on weekdays and closes at 6:00pm on weekends. For more information on Geumo Land, you can call 054) 451-8500 or visit their website at www.gumoland.co.kr 금오산과 금오랜드는 대구에서 운전해가면 오래 걸리지 않으면 혹은 기차를 잠깐 타고 구미역에서 15분 정도 걸어도 된다. 영업시간은 주중에 오전 10시~오후 6시, 주말에(3월~9월) 오전 10시~오후 7시까지이다. 시즌이 아닐 때(10월~2월)에는 주중 오전 9시 30분~오후 5시 30분, 주말은 6시에 문을 닫는다. 금오랜드에 대해 더 자세한 정보를 얻고 싶다면 054-451-8500로 전화하거나 웹사이트 www.gumoland.co.kr 에 들어가 보면 된다.

So, from seeing white cherry blossoms shining on a spring night, or enjoying a cool stream in a valley on a hot summer day, or fallen colored leaves on a won-derful fall day, or even beautiful white snow covering the mountain on a chilly winter day, Geumosan has beautiful sites for everywhere all year long. And, then of course if you take time to visit Geumo Land too, then after enjoying time there with your family, you all can say that you all went to the smallest amusement park in South Korea. 그래서, 봄밤에 빛나는 하얀 벚꽃을 보는 것에서부터 무더운 여름날 계곡의 시원한 물이나 멋진 가을에 떨어지는 단풍을 즐기거나 혹은 추운 겨울에 산을 덮은 아름다운 하얀 눈을 즐기는 것까지 금오산은 1년 내내 어디에서든지 아름다운 풍경을 선사할 것이다. 그리고 나서 만약에 금오랜드도 들러 가족과 함께 시간을 보내고 나면 모두들 함께 한국에서 가장 작은 놀이공원에 가보았다고 말할 수 있을 것이다.

Coheart Speaks To The Heart

Written by Alex Hernandez / Photographed by Yujeong LeeGet Treated Like The VIP You Are

The smell of coffee greets you at the door, as you enter Coheart salon and the room opens to a beautiful and aesthetically pleasing café, where you notice hairstyl-ists cutting hair a few feet away. An assistant comes to greet you and take your belongings to a locker room, and from there, the possibilities of what to come are endless. If you are here for a simple haircut then you are not making full use of what a salon in Korea has to offer. There are two branches of Coheart, and they have made their loyal customers here in Suseong-gu for the past 5 years. What sets them apart from other salons? They offer high-quality stylists because the salon itself is making sure each of their stylists advance in their skills through their education program and in-house training.

There are nine levels in total, and the staff comes in two or three times a week to train in order to move higher up the ranks. They start as junior stylists and continue to be promoted. Currently there are five in house hair dressers.This past September, Coheart moved down the street and into their new building, with a beautiful outdoor pa-tio that gives customers an amazing view of Suseong Lake. The purpose for moving into the bigger space was to have enough room so customers could get the complete experience, from head to toe. They have a nail salon and a makeup room in the front area that brides use often when preparing for their wedding day. For ei-ther acrylic nails or a makeup session, an appointment

is necessary at least a week in advance. Next to the café, you walk down a short hallway, pass the scalp massage area, and into their skin care area called Heart Aesthetic. Italian, French, German products line the wall. Their products are imported, mostly from Eu-ropean countries. The aesthetic area is devoted solely to skin care; private rooms with showers that make you just feel VIP. They offer a couples room, so that couples or friends can enjoy each other‘s company while getting special treatment. The most popular treatment is the back massage, an hour long massage for 90,000 won.If you are interested in dyeing your hair, the price de-pends on the amount of dye used. Walking to the back room, the staff shows me the L’Oreal hair dyes and the scales they use to weigh the product. So a person with long thin hair may possibly pay the same amount for a person with short thick hair. On average however, a person with long hair will usually pay 100,000 won and a person with short hair will be billed about half as much. I got my own hair cut by one of the four gen-eral managers of the salon, a friendly gentleman who

-continued on p44-

knew his art. He gave me his tips to fine hair, and some personal tips for my kind of hair, how to moisturize and how to deal with dry hair. He wasn’t afraid of going off the beaten path, and had no problem restyling the un-dercut I had already had that needed some maintenance work. The L’Oreal products he used smelled wonderful, and he stylized with quick and steady hands while his assistant made sure I was comfortable through the pro-cess. They’ve been trained in the art of coffee, so I was quite please when I was offered an Americano after my cut. If you are into Dutch coffee, they happily serve that

too. They aim to please, and one of their goals is to be known as the salon with delicious coffee. Coheart salon feels like a day at a spa, it is such a beautiful place that relaxes you and makes the experience of getting a haircut simply relaxing. Do not miss a chance to enjoy this salon if you are in the Suseong-gu area, it was quite a pleasant experience!

As the year draws to a close, the busy team behind Daegu’s medical tourism programs is taking stock of the year’s accomplishments, and they were many. New facilities were built, programs were expanded, and more visitors came to Daegu for a taste of affordable health care and Korean culture.

One of Daegu Meditour’s most visible and prolific ven-tures is the promotional booths set up at many festi-vals, expos, and other large events throughout the year.

Designed to inform visitors and foreigners about quick tours built around an even quicker medical procedure in the city, the promotional booths have successfully lured customers all year long. At the Preview in Daegu, six Malaysian buyers visited the Taeoreum Oriental Clinic and received oriental medicinal therapy after visiting the promotional booth. Likewise, three Slovakian plastic surgeons went on a familiarization tour at Kyungpook University Hospital and V Plastic Surgery Group during the IWA Regional Conference and an American went to

Hoo Oriental Clinic and got oriental medicinal therapy after the 4th Asian NIR Symposium.

In all, the promotional booths made appearances in over 20 events in the city and elsewhere in Korea including the International Green Energy Expo & Con-ference, Daegu Beauty Expo, MEDI Expo, Liberty Fest, Chimaek Festival, and the Daegu Fashion Fair. 1200 foreigners dropped by these promotional booths to re-ceive a free health check-up, counseling on site from a doctor, and information about the Meditours in the city.

Daegu also expanded its repertoire of promotional materials. Daegu now offers medical maps and pro-gram books in English, Chinese, and Russian. The map marks many of the city’s leading medical institutions and points of interest. The program book introduces each medical service and package with prices, required times, and other necessary details. These resources make the city’s increasingly dense medical tourism infrastructure more accessible to foreign visitors.

International students, particularly those from China, were a continued focus over the course of the year. In 2014, 90 students and their parents from abroad participated in the Hyo Medical Tour, which allows the parents of international students to come for a medical procedure and small cultural experience. Additionally, EXCO held a special event in June for Chinese inter-national students in the Daegu/Gyeongbuk area. Six local organizations including Daegu Metropolitan City and Dongsan Medical Center introduced the medical facilities of the area and offered a Q&A session. 112 students showed up for the special event.

Additionally, Daegu offers a familiarization tour as a generic introduction to the medical facilities of the met-ropolitan area. In 2014, tour agencies and medical in-stitutes from Taiwan, China, Vietnam, Canada, Russia, and Singapore participated in the tour, increasing Dae-gu’s visibility in the global medical tourism network.

Some of the year’s biggest achievements came to-ward the end of the year. Daegu sent a delegation to the World Medical Tourism and Global Healthcare Congress held in Washington, D.C. in September. This event marked the first time Daegu was represented in such a large-scale medical convention. In October, the city held the 37th Annual Herb Medicine Culture Festival

Page 49: December 2014 The Daegu Compass

in Yangnyeongsi. Visitors to the festival had the chance to make and purchase products from cosmetics to herbal teas to ginseng fries, all from traditional herbs. Visitors also had the opportunity to receive a diagno-sis and then travel to Taeoreum Oriental Clinic to try the proper traditional remedy.

Daegu’s medical tourism team can celebrate their achievements from the past year, but they have their work cut out for them as more cities in more countries compete for tourists seeking medical attention. As al-ways, the city can rely on its people’s innovative and proactive approaches to the industry as a source of inspiration and pride. 2015 should be another exciting year for Daegu’s medical tourism industry.

Suseong Lake area offers a change of pace to the hustle and bustle of downtown. Suseong Lake also boasts an amusement park (Suseong Land) reminiscent of those carnivals you went to with your parents at the local fair ground. There’s something to be said when you are on the back of the seahorse with a safety bar that barely locks you in place as you float for a few brief seconds in mid-air before being plunged back down in your seat. Thrilling, exhilarating are just a few choice words to describe the experience.

Suseong Lake area is one of the classiest places in Daegu, a perfect date area. After taking your sweetheart out to a nice meal, I’d recommend Napoli, Ganga, La Bella Cucina or New York New York, take a stroll around Suseong Lake until you come upon the famous ‘duck boats’ and paddle your way into each other’s hearts. Thanks to the photogs who took the great pics you see here. Aygul Sarvarova, Jeremy Taylor and Chanel Barlow.

An easy step-by-step guide on how to get food delivered right to your door. Mastering food delivery by phone in Korea is not difficult. Think of all those dozens of restaurants that are just a stone's throw from your apartment. Get past the nervousness of ordering once or twice and you will see an entirely new world of dining possibilities open up before you.

여보세요(yeobo say yo? / Hello?)

여기 수성구 범어동 598-23 컴퍼스 빌라 202호인데요.(yeogi “your address” in-dae-yo. / My address is Suseong-gu, Beomeo-dong Compass Villa 202.)

자장면 하나랑 볶음밥 하나 주세요.(jajangmyeon hana-rang pokkeumbab hana juseyo. / One Jajangmyeon and one fried rice, please)

얼마예요?(ul-ma-ye-yo? / How much is it?)

8,000원입니다.(pal-cheon-won imnida. / It’s 8,000 won.)

네, 고맙습니다.(ne, go-map-sum-ni-da. / Ok, thank you)

This is a sample conversation you might have when you order food. Try it out to get your favorite dish delivered right to your home. How convenient!

Daebong-dong

Daehan News / Two PpulGrilled over an open flame. That's the concept behind Daehan News and Two Ppul. After selecting your choice of steak or pork, a server really heats things up as it cooks your meat with a mini blowtorch. Sounds hot, right? The Korean sides provided com-pliment the meal perfectly. The interior of both restaurants is in true Korean 'pojang macha' style where dining around a stainless steel table with clear plastic walls shel-tering you from the elements. So next time its Korean night, head on over to either of these meaty restaurants. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions.

Pic&iqVIP treatment at Pic&iq is what you get when dining at this special restaurant. The owner and chef caters personally to your dinner party since you have to make a reser-vation before coming. Why, you might wonder? Pic&iq is only opened from 6-10pm, and you can call from 3pm to reserve one of four tables. The dinner is a set menu of grilled, marinated pork, tortilla bread, salad and grilled tomatoes and bananas. The chef also prepares a special ramyeon for the meal. VIP treatment without the VIP prices makes this a wonderful experience. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions.

Kim Gwang-suk RoadNot far from bustling downtown next to the Bangcheon Marketplace, Kim Kwang-suk Road is a lengthy alleyway that displays several murals and other small works of art upon its walls, dedicated to the popular Korean folk singer in the late 80’s and early 90’s, Kim Kwang-suk (1964~1996). He was well loved by the younger generations at the time for his soulful vocals and contemplative lyrics which deeply reflected the transition of Korea in late 80s. The area is quite isolated, taking you away from the busy and hectic city life, and dropping you into a surrealistic wonderland of art where time seems to be still for a moment.

GajokGajok means 'family' in Korean. That's the feeling you get when you step inside this wonderful Korean restaurant. Now, before you start to get a mental picture of the food it serves, just know that most of the meat is from the thigh and not the actual foot. What??? Yes, Gajok serves pig's foot for dinner.. But it's not like you are eating the hoof of the pig. In Korea, the foot and leg seems to go hand in hand, so it is similar to eating drumsticks (chicken legs). Enjoy! Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions.
