The buses are very efficient, but lack a bit of charm. The run bang on time to the minute though. 

Spent the night at Donghae, a small town 60 miles south of Sokcho. Very pleasant place right by the sea although the beach won't be winning any records. Difficult to get to as well given the miles of razor wire guarding it. 

Visited some caves with some impressive stalagmites and stalactites. They give you a hard had when you enter, which is just as well given the height if the roof and the hardness of the stone.

100 tv channels in my room, all of them in Korean. The even have a Dog TV channel. At least I think it was a channel and not the room service menu,
