Busan Diary | Romantic Moments at Gwangalli and Haeundae

At dawn, Gwangalli Bridge is bathed in morning light, with golden reflections shimmering on the sea. Early fishing boats break the tranquility. Sitting on the beach with a hot Americano, watching the sun rise between the steel cables, the entire city is painted in a honeyed hue—this is Busan's gentle gift to early risers. Haeundae, where the daytime hustle settles. On the wooden trail of Dongbaek Island, waves kiss the fine sand at your feet. As the first rays of sunlight emerge, savoring a cup of coffee marks the beginning of a day's journey. "In Busan, every day is worth bidding farewell and welcoming anew with two rituals."
