If you go to the island village Gapado, [Chapter 3 Gapado Unmanned Cafe Lighthouse]
-
If you go to the port, there is a lighthouse, whether in a large town or a small town. It illuminates the sea route so that ships can safely anchor in the distant sea. The invisible lighthouse keeper knows that he is doing his job quietly when he sees that the ship has arrived well. Gapado Island is a small island measuring about 1.4km in width and length that can be reached in 10 minutes by ferry from Unjin Port in the southwest of Jeju Island. If you walk slowly across the island, you can go from end to end in 15 minutes. At the same time, the low peak for an island captures the characteristics of this island village well. All of them have low building heights, and if there is one thing you can see especially well, it is definitely the lighthouse. red lighthouse. As I walked towards it, I felt the feeling of a trip with one hot dog. The opposite side of Gapado, where he arrived. There is a long wooden shop. When viewed from the road, it resembles an island floating alone on the sea.

there is no one There are only a few guidelines. It reads, 'Pay 3,000 won and drink the tea and coffee you want'. A collection of crafts and works decorated in the space. The seats face the port. I paid for myself, prepared tea with the tea bag prepared here, and sat down in a well-lit place. I hear the sound of waves. Because it's an unmanned cafe, I can't even hear basic sounds when the owner of the space is there. Quietly sipping tea with the sound of the waves. I came to Gapado Island hoping for this. Leaning on the sound of the waves, I leave to the deep inner world in order to find reflection on my lost health and mental brain due to my busy life.

I feel like I've found my lost path. Contrary to the name of the lighthouse, there is no lighthouse keeper here, but it creates an environment that allows you to find your way in another open sea. It is said that 'meditation' is possible anywhere if you become an expert, but for me as a beginner, the environment is still important. Even though there is no lighthouse keeper, maybe this place is serving the same role as the name? Seeing that my footsteps after I left this place have become lighter, would the invisible keeper of this space be silently fulfilling his role?

Through those light steps, I walk around the island this time around the outskirts.

It is the famous 'Artist in Residence'. It feels like an abandoned space that somehow doesn't feel popular. A long time ago, when I was working for a company in Hannam-dong, I saw the Gapado exhibition at #Hyundai Car Drive. The urban regeneration project I saw there was a work worthy of applause. The cooperative relationship and results that space artists have longed for and dreamed of. At that time, the short one-hour tour made an impression enough to select Gapado as the first destination on the last Jeju trip. And this space is now abandoned. Now, after a long time has passed, this Gapado is dark and mysterious stories dot the spaces, overshadowing its value. People who chase money People who don't know exactly what kind of group they are, people who don't understand. Yes, chasing money is good. But did you have to be so mean to someone? And did we have to go on breaking the promises we all made? Are the villagers of cooperatives really the villagers of this neighboring village of Cheonjiin Island? When I hear the sounds I hear from time to time through articles, the details, accuracy, and even the sounds they say are all different. You can't believe the article, but by combining several articles and information, you can confirm that something is wrong.

A lot of people are suffering because of someone's fault. As a writer who introduces and informs the space, I tend to include information in the content of my writing in as much detail as possible for all readers of my writing. However, my work and efforts are being overshadowed. I feel a little relieved because there are no people visiting the author's writings that are going up now, but I am not comfortable with the news of 'cancellation of reservations' at the travel destinations of many readers who enjoy the space together.
-
However, this space still contains its value in front of the dizzying vast sea.
-
This is #GapadoLighthouse, a space to find lost paths.

PS. It is said that Hyundai Card withdrew its hands from operation support as of March. I understand that Gapado House is out of operation. For those of you who read all of my posts, I hope that no one wants to go to Gapado House. We are currently looking for ways to re-operate by changing the operating use of the space, so we recommend that you wait for a while. In addition, apart from the space introduced, Gapado Island is recommended.
