Sang Sang Gil /write your name in Korea


 
In August till September 2015, KTO run  a campaign called "Write Your Name in Korea ". Of course i also participate and thankfully i am one of the 23000 lucky foreigner whose name is engrave at Sang Sang Gil (imaginary road)

You can also claim a free gift if you manage to visit the road..Im so thrill to have my name engrave as i like Korea so much and i feel like its simillar to walk of fame in Hollywood (err only that we are not famous ) lol

There are plenty way to go there either via Seoul or Busan. Busan is nearer to Changwon only 1 hour by bus. You can read the guideline to go HERE from KTO

I saw there is sale promo for Busan and my 1st thought is i need to go here !! However i missed the free bus time as i went to Orkyudo in the morning.

My Journey
1.From Sasang Station , i purchase a bus tiket at the Busan Interbus City Station to Masan (3500 won).
2.From Masan i take taxi (alternatively there is  free bus ride in the voucher but only till 31 Dec 2015)
The taxi driver at first not sure what is Sang Sang Gil but after i mentioned Changdong Art Village he got it. Fare approx : 4000 won-5000 won. I choose the same method on the way back

busan bus station near sasang
the ticket to Masan ( 1hour)
is it your name ?

There r also Kara's name and signature




You wil received email on the tile position 



claim your gift at the guesthouse rhizone * by 31 dec 2015 only

Its pancoat ! i remember RM member wore it in one of the episode
shirt, shoes and t-money
The art village


the road before transformation
this is after


even the flower pot is cute
the store



You can also check your name in the book available at 1st floor of Changdong Art Centre at Changdong Art Village
Anyway due to some technical issue, my tiles does not display my name, it is someone else. I already report this to KTO and they already rearrange back my name to the original position. Quite dissapointed but KTO did rectify this. Thank you... not sure how long this name will last but im still happy that my name was here,,,

oh I love the fact this city is still full on yellow ginko trees



Go and check out your name :)

  4. Hi dear!

    Can I check if you took a bus back to Busan sasang station after your visit at Sang Sang Gil?

    Are able to buy return ticket (Masan back to Busan Sasang station) at Masan station? can just buy ticket back on the spot at Masan bus station right?

    Thanks!!

    1. Hi Tiffy,
      I took cab and go back to the same bus station i arrive in masan.the bus station terminal name at sasang subway is called "busan seobu".yes once u arrive in masan terminal u can buy the return tix to busan seobu.it will be the best choice as you can show the taxi driver at sang sang gil the bus ticket.so they will know which masan terminal they should drop u .*they have one terminal for local bus and one with intercity bus*
