After my first taste of bungee jumping on day 3 I went searching for something even higher! We found a place in Jecheon called Cheongpung Land and decided to make the 2 hour drive out there. Surrounding Cheongpung Land is a humongous lake surrounded by some of the most beautiful and green mountains/hills I’ve ever seen.
The cost was $40 for a single jump and was well worth it as it was the tallest bungee tower in all of South Korea @ 62m (203 feet) high! Man, I gotta tell you, the hardest part was after they clipped you in and then it was time to hobble to the edge of the platform. It was crazy scary looking down and having half my feet dangling off the edge. Then I had to raise my arms and stand straight up closing my fists…

whoooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The fall was intense as I had never fallen and hung upside down for that long before. I felt my head pulsating with rushes of blood for a good 10 minutes afterwards.
The Super Burger
On the way home we stopped by a Shinsegae for dinner where I had the best burger I’ve ever had. Well, the meat was a little bit too well done but damn, I don’t think I’ve ever had a better basic burger in the states. The bun was super fluffy soft and had almost everything you could want in a burger. Lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, egg, bacon, mayo, ketchup, and I’m probably missing something else, all stacked super tall. They called it the ‘Super Burger.’
It’s about 6 inches tall.
The meat’s in there somewhere.
you thought it was the best burger you ever had?! it was pretty good, but best? no way.
we still have to go to the counter one of these days!
Hi!!
I am planning on going to Korea with some of my friends in January and I was wondering how far this bungy jumping place was from Seoul. I know it is probably a long drive, but it looks really fun. If you could get back to me, that would be great!! Thanks!!
Hi Sena, sorry, I have no idea how for that bungee place is from Seoul. I bet you can Google Map it or something
