I took a trip to Samcheok in September 2004 with Soutthida, Tom and Christa to see the Hwangseongul cave.
We arrived fairly early in the day and soon discovered that it would be almost a one and a half hour wait for the bus (the caves are located about 40 minutes drive from downtown Samcheok).
It was cramped in the sub and hard to believe how anyone could live and work in such a small space.
