an opera! Every Saturday, the intensive opera class will be held for free. It gets fairly high ratings owing to lectures of the greatest classic specialists in the country and arias of outstanding vocalists. This year marks the 450th birth of William Shakespeare, the writer of the world's greatest literature collections who has inspired numerous composers and talents. This class will focus on his works expanded into the related genre including opera. 10. 4 Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream by Cho Yunbeom Benjamin Britten is an English composer of modern music. He has been composing with his own inventive music style by using diverse mediums of contemporary music.. He is especially interested in music for young people. As a result, the Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra was created. Benjamin Britten succeeded to make A Midsummer Night's Dream into a magnificent opera full of wonderful melodies while staying true to the original work of Shakespeare. 10. 11 All about Romeo and Juliet - original play, film, opera and ballet by Lee Yongsuk Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is one of the most famous stories retold through countless mediums. During class, there will be a viewing of Gounod and Bellini's opera, Prokofiev's ballet, other masterpieces and films. The class will also focus on the spirit of the times and core themes the artists want to tell. 10. 18 Verdi's the Complex of Shakespeare, Macbeth and Othello by Hong Seungchan Shakespeare is an ineluctable destiny for the people who make drama part of their life. Verdi is no exception. He felt completely lost on Macbeth, and overcome by Othello, but eventually, found enlightenment through Falstaff. By studying Shakespeare's influence on Verdi's opera, students will have a greater understanding of character development throughout Verdi's performances. 10. 25 Dissection of the Shakespeare's women: Wives' Overturning by Kim Mijung One of characters from Shakespeare's Falstaff stirs multiple feelings inside of us because we vilify this lecher, but we are envious of his optimism. There are wise wives who fulfill their obligation in Shakespeare's masterpiece, The Merry Wives of Windsor. It presents the question, "Is it possible to enjoy the pleasure of multiple people without repercussion?" 22

Saving our Water Water Expo Korea 2014 Written by Brian Van Hise / Photos by EXCO
From producing electricity to raising vegetables, making products to quenching your thirst - what do you need the most? Yes, you need water.

Babes in Daeguland EXCO Baby Fair Written by Matthew Caracciolo / Photos by EXCO
Are you in any way, shape or form involved with tykes, toddlers, or terrible twos? Is your life filled with onesies, diapers, rattles, tummy time, or toys? Clear the play area, prepare the diaper bags, because there’s a new expo in town. The Daegu Baby and Kids Fair will be held from Thursday, November 6 to Sunday, November 9th at EXCO. Hosted by Daegu Metropolitan City and organized by EXCO, the expo will feature 650 booths from 270 companies specializing in the entertainment, education, and rearing of babies and young children. Organizers are expecting upwards of 50,000 parents, soon-to-be parents, educators, and their children to be in attendance. The exhibition, a sort of grand festival for parents new and old to learn about and compare childcare products and information, is categorized into two sections. The first, Pregnancy and Baby Supplies for pre-parents and 28
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
mothers, includes booths for pregnancy supplies, pregnancy services, kid’s food, kid’s safety supplies, and female products. The second, Childhood Education Supplies for kindergarten teachers and nursery facility, includes exhibits and booths for studying materials & supplies, educational institutes, support institute supplies, playing facilities, kindergarten supplies, educational toys, stationery, English education, electronic devices, and furniture. As with most expos of this magnitude, all the major and relevant companies have come out to play. Companies participating in the Pregnancy and Baby Supplies section include Maeil Dairies, RYAN, Inglesina, Queens Baby Studio, BoryungBiophama, Green Cross, and Alzip Mat. Similarly, the Childhood Education Supplies section will include Gymboree, Orda Korea, English Egg, Daegyo, Blue Rabbit, Korea Child Academy and Aram.
Special Events - exco baby fair

If you’re less interested in buying and more interested in learning, the expo will feature several seminars on bringing up babies and children. Learn the latest trends and developments on childcare. Topics will include “Gentle Birth: The Most Comfortable and Happiest Birth”, “How to Take Care During Pregnancy”, “Psychology Development of Children and the Role of Parents” and more. There will also be a variety of fun events to enjoy with your tot in tow. You can participate in an auction tosupport single moms, a milk-drinking race, a massage instructional session, a puppet show,a baby walker race, and more. It’s reasonable to believe that the baby walker race will maybe not include the baby, although the milk-drinking race could be fun as a team sport. Thanks to the persistent efforts of the Korean government to encourage families to have more children, the nation’s exceedingly low birth rate has reversed course and increased two years in a row. Parents like to spend generously on their children, making expos like the Baby and Kids Fair important for parents who want to spend wisely. To make sure the information, resources, and products of the expo are available to parents or expectant couples yearround, the expo is held twice annually. The expo will, of course, cater to its primary audience by providing strollers, medical rooms, a child lost and found, and free shuttle buses. To accommodate the growth of the event, the breast-feeding room and cafeteria will be expanded compared to the previous expo. Admission is 5,000 won, however if you pre-register on www.babyfair.or.kr by 6pm November 5th, admission is free. The hours are 10:00-18:00 every day. Contact 053-601-5374 for additional information. Don’t be a baby; come visit the Daegu Baby and Kids Fair and learn something for the kid you love.

Medi Tour Success Paves the Way for Expansion
As hype about Daegu’s medical tourism proliferates, Daegu Medi Tour has sought to ensure its hard-earned attention isn’t lost on stagnant programs. Unwilling to rest on the laurels of its original tours, the organization has expanded with two additional medi tours that will continue to provide exceptional service and unique experiences, both medical and cultural. The first of these new programs is the Hyo Medi Tour. Designed with international students in mind, the Hyo Medi Tour allows parents of Chinese students studying in Korea to come to the country for a comprehensive medical check as well as a splash of cultural inundation. In a city handicapped by its inland setting and distance from the more cosmopolitan and famous Seoul area, the Hyo Medi Tour is an ingenious method of luring foreign travelers by utilizing the local international student population, of which over 60% is Chinese. After a cautious start, the word is being spread and participants are choosing a wider range of procedures. “At first, participants usually chose basic medical treatments such as medical check-ups,” said Baek Mi-Ran, 30
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
manager of the Hyo Medi Tour program. “But now, the program has settled in and we have the customers’ trust. Now they ask for more treatments in dermatology or simple plastic surgery.” The entire tour is supported by Daegu City with transportation, interpreters, and souvenirs. Parents sign up for the system online and send the required visa documents. After immigration approves the visa, the applicants send the participation fee and choose the desired medical program. They fly into Daegu and start the 4 day tour, which includes a greeting ceremony, health check-up, some sightseeing, and a traditional culture experience. The parents return home well-rested, healthy, and with a deeper understanding of Korean culture. Since 2012, over 450 people have participated in the program, some to life-saving effects. “Last August, a Chinese student in Daejeon invited her parents-in-law to the program,” mentioned Baek. “They were afraid of receiving medical attention in another country so they simply chose the basic health check-up

and colonoscopy. During the procedure, both in-laws found out they had polyps. They underwent surgery to remove them.” The couple then decided to complete a more thorough health examination at the recommendation of the tour and then returned all the healthier to China. The Hyo Medi Tour has been a great success in Daegu and has served as an example for peer cities to follow. Brand new to the scene will be the Suseong Healing Tour, the second new tour added to the plethora of options offered by Daegu Medi Tour. Designed to relieve stress, the main goal of the Suseong Healing Tour is for foreigners to get away from the daily grind with some relaxing treatments, helpful medical check-ups, and cultural excursions. In the meantime, the tour promotes local medical services while introducing Korean culture to foreign visitors. 32
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
The first day’s focus is the health check-up, which includes aspects of dermatology, Korean traditional medicine, ophthalmology, dentistry, and internal medicine. After a healthy Korean lunch, the party moves to the Puren Tea Culture Center and culminates with a temple stay at Dongwhasa on Palgongsan. The second day’s itinerary is a bit less active. Participants take the cable car to Palgongsan to enjoy the breathtaking scenery. The tour stops at the Daegu Bangjja Yugi Museum, a robust collection of Korean traditional brassware, before heading back toward the city and the end of the tour. All told, the tour runs for 250,000won a person with a minimum of four participants per tour. The introduction of new tours throughout the city is a testament to the hard work of Daegu’s promoters and Medi Tour’s quality services. With each success comes the challenge to offer a wider range of quality services

to a wider range of visitors. Hyo Medi Tour and Suseong Healing Tour, along with the rest of Daegu Medi Tourâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offerings, are examples of the careful consideration the organization takes to form meaningful and helpful experiences, and should be on the list for any visitor looking for health, relaxation, and a taste of traditional Korea.

Percent % Craft Beer Pub No Ordinary Korean Draft Beer Here! Written by Katy Babiarz / Photographed by Ivan Broida
Percent is one of the newest pubs in the ever changing Daebong-dong (대봉동) neighborhood. With 7 craft beers on tap, a variety of delicious pub foods, excellent music to match the beers, and a fun English speaking owner, it’s going to be one of my new favorite hot spots after a long day at work, and I’m sure it will be yours too!Friday and Saturday are their busiest night with plenty of foreigners and Koreans both enjoying their delectablebeers. Percent gets its draft beers from Korean breweries in Busan and Seoul. Galmegi Brewing Co, Ka-Brew, The Booth and Reily’s Tap House have proven to be big hits with the foreigners, as well as Koreans. After visiting a pub in Itaewon a year ago, owner Tae Young Sung fell in love with Pale Ales. Now, he wants to share his love of Pale Ales with the rest of Korea by opening up a place 34
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
that sells them, and all for an excellent price! If you’re looking for Hite, Max, Cass, or any of those other types of beers, you won’t find them here. Instead, you’ll find beers full of flavor with a stronger ABV (Alcohol by Volume) and rich colors. Hence the pub’s name Percent. Percent’s draft beers change seasonally, so if you haven’t gone since they opened back in June, stop by again and taste the newest beers available this month! With the cooler weather approaching, it’s time for the darker, warmer beers to hit the taps.
Food:
-The Percent Fries are a great value! They come served with a good portion of sweet bulgogi, spicy jalapenos, and onions, with a sweet sour cream sauce and a tangy

BBQ sauce drizzled over top. It’s the perfect balance between sweet and spicy. -The Curry Ketchup with Sausages is a pleasant surprise to my taste buds. Young Sung’s brother, who lives in Germany, came up with this pairing and told his older brother he had to have it at his pub. So, here it is, and it’s a hit! The sweet curry ketchup is the perfect complement to the two juicy sausages. -The Chicken Sandwich is the big hit here at Percent among foreigners and Koreans! I see exactly why! It’s a towering stack of breaded chicken, tomato, onions, cheese, sauces, and lettuce between a bun. It without a doubt requires a fork and knife to eat. And if that isn’t enough already, they serve it with a huge side of fries! -Chicken Drumstick BBQ is not exactly as it seems, because there are no drumstick bones. But, the flavors of this tender dark meat and a sauce full of seasonings makes it definitely one of the healthiest and most delicious pub foods I’ve ever eaten. It comes with a heaping portion of roasted veggies, such as onions, mushrooms, red, green and yellow peppers, and a sweet pineapple slice, too -The Original Hotdog is only available on weekdays from 6-9 pm. It’s served with cheese, mustard and ketchup. For under 4,000 won, this is a great light meal to have with a good heavy beer. I have to sadly admit that I’ve walked past this pub since the end of June when it opened, and I never went in because I thought it was too fancy and expensive. Well, upon going in for this review, my mind has made a 180. The upbeat American music being played, the warm lighting, the ever so friendly owner, Tae Young Sung (태영성), and the excellently priced food and drinks sure put me in my place to not judge a book by its cover. Don’t let the beautiful wood architectural work fool you, like it did me. Come in with friends, or alone after work and rid all those worries from your day away! I know I will be heading here on a weekly basis on my walk home from teachingfor sure! Be in the loop by visiting their Facebook page facebook.com/percentcraftbeer where they will be posting about various future events, such as Guest Keg Night and 25,000 won unlimited tap night!
-There’s no happy hour, since Young Sung thought having reasonably priced beers during all hours was a better option than offering a few beers at a cheaper price. What a nice guy, right?!
How to Get to Percent:
-It’s on the busy street in the neighborhood between Camp Henry and Centro Palace Apartments, and the wedding street and the furniture street. -From Banwoldang (반월당역): Head away from the big department stores in the Metro Plaza Shopping Center and go towards the food court end. Take Gate 7(straight ahead, in between the coffee shop),and take the steps to the right. Keep walking down past Centro Palace for about 10 minutes. It will be on the left hand side on the block just after the blue market and before the one and only traffic light. -From Camp Henry: Come out of the gate near the school and make a left towards downtown. Shortly after crossing the street with the new metro line, it will be on the right hand side just before the blue market. -By bus: 427 and 401 will drop you off at the Daebong-dong Public Library (대봉도서관). It’s just up the street from it! -continued on p36-
Hours:
-Open 7 days a week from 5 or 6 pm to 2 am. However, until November, they will open at 3 pm on the weekends, so that people can come in and enjoy the cool fall weather. 35

The Beauty of Autumn… Exploring Daegu's Beautiful Fall Colors
Written and photographed by Lauren Jarman / Translated by Sujin Park / http://sneakerssocksandsoju.wordpress.com/
In South Africa, I live in a city that has a fairly sub-tropical climate, which means there isn’t much difference in the seasons. Summer and Winter seem to roll into one another without any regard for Autumn and Spring. The surrounding landscape remains fairly similar and the only difference in temperature is an average of 5 degrees. One of the first things I noticed living in Korea was how I could literally see the seasons change. I remember my absolute awe at the Cherry Blossoms which announced the start of Spring and in October I was feeling the same about the bright yellow, red and orange leaves that adorned all the trees for the start of Autumn. If there’s one thing you need to do at this time of year, it’s to pay a visit to a little gem on the outskirts of Daegu – The Arboretum. 나는 남아공에서 아열대 기후에 거의 가까운 성격의 도시 에서 살았다. 말인즉슨 계절의 차이가 별로 없었다는 의

미다. 여름과 겨울은 봄, 가을 띄워 넘은 채 한 계절 같았 다. 주변 풍경은 거의 같았고 온도는 평균 5도 정도 밖에 차이가 나지 않았다. 한국에 살면서 알아차리게 된 첫번 째 사실들 중 하나는 말 그대로 계절의 변화를 눈으로 볼 수 있는 방법 이었다. 봄의 시작을 알리는 벚꽃에 대한 절 대적인 경외감을 기억한다. 그리고 10월에 가을의 시작 을 알리는 나무들을 뒤덮었던 샛노랗고 붉었던, 주황빛 나뭇잎에 대해서도 같은 감정을 느꼈다. 이 시기에 당신 이 해야 할 일이 있다면, 그것은 대구 외곽에 있는 작은 보 석과도 같은 곳에 기꺼이 방문을 하는 것이다. 바로 수목 원에 말이다.
The Arboretum is a short walk from Daegok Station at the end of the red line and is open all year round, although I suspect it is most beautiful in Spring and Autumn. The most fascinating thing about the Arboretum is that the site it’s built on was actually a sanitary landfill from 1986-1990. In efforts to restore this area, the
Travel Korea - The Beauty of Autumn…
http://daegucompass.com
city government constructed botanical gardens that include more than 1 000 species of unique plants, making the Daegu Arboretum a wonderful example of how to restore a seriously damaged ecosystem. 지하철 1호선의 마지막인 대곡역에서 조금만 걸어가 면 수목원이 있는데 연중무휴이다. 하지만 가장 아름 다운 때는 봄과 가을이라고 생각한다. 이 수목원에 대해 가장 흥미로운 점은 1986년에서 1990년 사이 에 실제로 위생 매립지였던 곳의 위에 지어졌다는 것 이다. 이 지역을 복원하기 위한 노력으로, 시 정부는 1,000여종이 넘는 독특한 식물이 있는 정원을 조성했 으며, 대구 수목원은 심각하게 훼손된 생태계를 복원 하는 방법에 대한 훌륭한 본보기가 되었다.
In Autumn, the road leading up to the main entrance is rather impressive and lined with beautiful trees all sporting different shades of orange and red leaves. The main entrance pathway leads towards a central grass area where, on a good day, you’ll find plenty of children playing while the adults soak up the sun. There are pathways that lead off in every direction and there are also several trail routes for the more serious walkers. At the time I was there last year, they were hosting the Chrysanthemum Festival (keep a look at for it), which meant the beautiful Autumn hues of the trees were contrasted against a myriad of bold colours of the chrysanthemums… what a sight! 가을에는 정문으로 인도하는 도로에 다양한 톤의 빨 간색과 주황색 단풍을 늘어뜨린 나무들이 줄 서 있어 꽤 인상적이다. 정문으로 가는 길은 날씨가 좋은 날에 는 어른들이 볕을 쬐는 동안 많은 아이들이 뛰어 노는 중앙잔디밭으로 이어진다. 길은 여러 방향으로 나뉘 어져 있고 좀 더 걷고 싶은 사람들을 위한 여러 코스도 있다. 작년 이 곳에 왔을 때 국화 축제가 열렸는데 (계 속 축제에 대해 주목하고 있다.) 아름다운 나무의가을 빛깔이 무수히 많은 선명한 색깔의 국화들과 대조되 었다. 얼마나 볼 만 했는지!
Various models had been made out of the bright coloured chrysanthemums and were displayed all over the exhibition. There were a lot of cute bears and then also a few bigger things like the traditional Korean house and dragon. The house was really cute and even had a little tunnel going through it which the children loved to run through (and the -continued on p40-

adults liked to take photos in…and yes, by adults I mean my friends and I). The dragon was also very impressive with a mass of yellow chrysanthemums being used as the body and resting on a flower bed of different shades of pink. One of the most popular displays was the giant heart, which is by far the most loved symbol in Korea. It was such a hit there was even a line you had to stand in to get your obligatory picture of you posing in it (and yes…of course I took one). 전시회 곳곳에 밝은 색의 국화들로 만들어진 다양한 모형 들이 전시되었다. 많은 귀여운 곰들과 한국의 전통 가옥, 용 같은 것들이 더 있었다. 집은 굉장히 귀여웠고 아이들 이 뛰어다니며 통과하기 좋아라하는 작은 터널도 있었다. (그리고 어른들은 터널 안에서 사진 찍기를 좋아했다…. 그렇다, 어른들이라 함은 나와 내 친구들을 뜻한다.) 용 의 몸통으로 사용된 풍성한 노란 국화 무더기와 용이 쉬고 있는 다양한 분홍빛으로 만든 화단도 매우 인상적이었다. 가장 인기 있었던 전시물 중 하나는 거대한 하트였는데, 한국에서 단연코 가장 사랑받는 마크이다. 가장 대박이 난 작품이었는데 들어가서 포즈를 취하고 남들처럼 사진 을 찍으려면 줄까지 서야 했다. (당연히, 이것도 찍었다.).
If there’s no flower show on be sure to take a look at one of the Aboretums permanent features, the Cactus 40
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
Greenhouse. It reminds me so much of home. Not only is the Karoo landscape in South Africa littered with hauntingly beautiful cacti but my parents have a love for them as well, so my garden growing up was full of them. The Greenhouse has an impressive selection with my favourite being the Money Trees. Even though there weren’t many cacti that were actually flowering, they were still great to look at. 꽃 전시회가 없다면 수목원의 상시 전시물 중 하나인 선인 장 온실을 둘러봐야 한다. 여기는 집 생각을 많이 나게 한 다. 잊혀지지 않는 아름다운 선인장이 흩어져 있는 남아프 리카 카루의 자연풍경뿐만 아니라 부모님의선인장에 대 한 사랑도 말이다. 그래서 내가 자랐던 정원에는 선인장이 가득했다. 수목원 온실에는 내가 가장 좋아하는 돈나무를 포함한 다양한 식물들이 있다. 실제로 꽃이 피는 선인장은 많이 없지만 그래도 볼만한 곳이다.
After wondering around the grounds be sure to walk along the little stream that leads back down to the entrance. I can still picture the vivid colours of the trees. I have never seen such yellow and red leaves in my life before…it truly was beautiful…like something out of a painting. It’s nice to finally be able to experience seasons, where you can actually visualize them by looking

at your surroundings. For everyone in Daegu, or those coming to visit, definitely put this on your ‘to do’ list this Autumn…it’s one of the best free outings you can have! 수목원을 둘러본 후에는 아래쪽의 입구로 향하는 작은 시내를 따라 걸어 보아라. 아직도 나무의 강렬한 색을 떠올릴 수 있다. 이제껏 그렇게 샛노랗고 새빨간 단풍 을 본 적이 없다. 그것은 정말이지 아름다웠다. 마치 그림에서 나온 것처럼. 주위를 둘러보기만 해도 실제 로 계절을 볼 수 있는 사계절을 마침내 경험할 수 있게 되어서 좋다. 대구에 사는 모든 사람들이나 방문하는 여행자들은 반드시 수목원에 방문하는 것을 이번 가을 에 ‘해야 할 일’ 목록에 올려두어야 한다. 그 것은 당신 이 할 수 있는 공짜 외출 중에 최고다!

Eoreumgol (얼음골) Short Detour in Ice Valley Written and photographed by Thomas Matthews / Translated by Sangwon Lee
For foreigners, the city of Daegu has so many positives. One of those positives is a short trip down Highway 25 or the Gyeongbu railroad line to a small city in Gyeongsangnam-do called Miryang. 외국인들에게 있어 대구는 아주 많은 장점들로 가득하다. 이러한 장점 중 하나는 남쪽으로 국도 25호선이나 경부 철도로 연결되는 경상남도의 작은 도시, 밀양으로의 짧 은 여행이다.
With a population around 110,000, Miryang, is famous for many things. It is well known for a popular 2007 Korean movie with the same name. The city is also known for a 15th-century Neo-Confucian scholar named Kim Jong-jik and a 16th-century warrior-monk named Yu Jeong. But Miryang is also known for a very famous South Korean national monument. 42
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
인구 11만명의 밀양은 이미 많은 것들을 통해 유명하다. 2007년 흥행작이었던 한국영화 제목과 이름이 같아 유명 하다. 또한 15세기 주자학자인 김종직(金宗直) 그리고 호 국불교의 화신인 사명대사의 도시로 유명하다. 그러나 밀 양은 한국의 천연기념물로도 잘 알려져 있다.
The place is called Eoreumgol (얼음골), which means "ice valley." Euroeum means ice and gol means valley or gorge. This name comes from the valley having freezing cold temperatures even during the summertime. This is because of the cold air that comes up from the ground that makes the valley freezing cold all year around. 이 지명은 여름 동안에도 지독히 추운 계곡에서 유래됐 고, 계곡 지반에서 나오는 찬 공기가 일년 내내 계곡을 싸 늘하게 만든다.

-continued on p44-
43
This cold air is then trapped in Eoreumgol due to Eoreumgol being filled by stones and it is difficult for warm weather to enter due to the cold weather being trapped. I had a chance to visit Eoreumgol in the middle of August of this year and it was experience that I enjoyed very much and want to share with you all. 44
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
얼음골이 돌로 이뤄졌기 때문에 찬 공기는 얼음골에 갇히 는데 날씨가 따뜻하더라도 추운 날씨에 갇힌 찬 공기 때 문에 들어가기가 쉽지 않다. 필자는 올해 8월 중순에 얼음 골을 방문할 기회를 가져 너무나도 즐거웠던 경험을 여러 분과 나누고자 한다.
Travel Korea - Eoreumgol (얼음골)
http://daegucompass.com
When I first arrived at Eoreumgol, it was very chilly. We went directly to the valley where we had a picnic. The valley had a nice stream, which is surrounded by big and small rocks, and the water is flowing in one direction down the stream. 처음 얼음골에 도착했을 때, 굉장히 쌀쌀했다. 우리는 피크닉을 위해 계곡으로 곧장 들어갔다. 계곡은 멋진 개울에 크고 작은 바위로 둘러싸여 있었고, 물은 계곡 의 한 방향으로 흘렀다.
It was the middle of August, and the water in the stream was very cold proving the point why Eoreumgol is also called "ice valley." But despite the cold water, it felt very good on a hot day. There were a few deep parts that teenagers were jumping into, so be careful if you have small children. But most parts of the stream were about ankle high in water, so it was safe for young children to play in. 8월 중순임에도 계곡의 물은 얼음골이란 이름값을 제 대로 할 정도로 아주 차가웠다. 차가운 물이지만 더운 날씨에는 기분 좋게 느껴졌다. 몇몇 깊은 곳도 있었지 만 10대들은 물 속으로 뛰어 들었기에 어린 아이들과 함께라면 조심하길 바랍니다. 계곡물은 대부분 발목 정도여서 어린 아이들이 놀기에도 안전했다.
For 1000 won per adult, I was able to hike up Cheonhwang Mountain (천황산). Cheonhwang Mountain is about 600 meters above sea level. Like all mountains in Korea, I was able to enjoy the nature and the fresh air from the mountain. I continued hiking up the mountain and the first thing I visited was a small temple. A statue of the Buddha, was waiting in a temple to greet me. You are welcome to go inside, take your shoes off and bow down and pray to him if you want (just like all temples) but I wanted to continue my hiking. 어른 한 사람당 입장료가 천원인 천왕산으로 이동했 다. 천왕산은 해발 600미터로 한국의 다른 산들과 마 찬가지로 자연과 신선한 공기를 즐길 수 있었다. 산 으로 하이킹을 계속해서 맨 먼저 방문한 곳은 작은 사찰이었다. 법당의 불상이 필자를 반겨주며 기다리 고 있었다. 여러분이 원한다면 법당 내부로 신을 벗 고 들어가 절을 하면서 기도해도 좋다 (다른 절과 마 찬가지로). 그러나 이번에는 계속해서 하이킹을 하는 편이 좋았다. -continued on p46-
45
많은 커브가 있는 워터 슬라이드처럼 보였다. 물은 곡선 을 이루며 맨 아래 작은 못으로 흘러 들었다. 이번에도 물 은 신선하고 차가웠다. 이곳에서 편히 쉬면서 자연의 고요 함을 느낄 수 있었다.
I continued hiking up and I reached to 가마불 폭포. This falls had two types of waterfalls, one which is was for men (숮) and one which was for women (암). The men waterfalls was a straight normal fall but the water was like a shower water inside your bathroom. The small pond at the bottom of the waterfall felt very refreshing. It was cold but it was part of nature and it made all of my stress go away during that moment. After walking in it, I felt refreshed and was able to continue my hiking. 계속해서 걷다 보니 가마불 폭포에 이르렀다. 이 폭포는 두 가지 형태로 물이 떨어지는데 암수로 짝을 이루고 있 다. 숫가마불폭포는 곧은 평범한 폭포였지만 물은 욕조 안 의 샤워기 물처럼 떨어졌다. 폭포 아래 작은 못은 아주 상 쾌하게 느껴졌다. 다소 추웠지만 자연의 한 부분에서 이 순간만큼은 스트레스를 모두 날려버렸다. 못에서 걷고 난 후, 기분 좋게 하이킹을 계속할 수 있었다.
While hiking up and down the Cheonhwang Mountain, you are able to drink this fresh, cold water, which many residents in the Miryang area use this water to drink at their homes. You can also try to the cable car experience until 6:00pm every day. Throughout my experience at Eoreumgol, the weather was a lot colder than outside of the national monument. The weather definitely matched its name. So, next summer when Daegu is burning and you want to experience very cold, icy weather to cool down during the hot summer time, then take the short 60 kilometers trip southwest from Daegu to Miryang and go to Eoreumgol. If you take a train to Miryang Train Station, there are many buses that go from the train station to Eoreumgol. And also do not forget that Miryang is also famous for one more thing, very delicious, sweet and juicy apples. Remember to buy some as a sweet memory of your time in Miryang. 천왕산을 오르내리는 동안 마실 수 있는 이곳의 맑고 깨끗 한 물은 밀양의 많은 주민들이 식수로 사용한다. 매일 6시 까지 운행하는 케이블 카를 타볼 수도 있다. 얼음골에 있 는 동안, 날씨는 천연 기념물 바깥보다 훨씬 더 추웠다. 날 씨는 분명히 8월 한여름이었다. 그래서, 다음 여름 대구에 폭염이 기승을 부릴 때 시원해지도록 아주 춥고 쌀쌀한 날 씨를 경험하길 원한다면, 대구에서 남쪽으로 60km 떨어 진 밀양으로 짧은 여행을 떠나 얼음골을 찾아 보길 추천한 다. 밀양역으로 기차를 탄다면, 기차역에서 얼음골로 가는 많은 버스가 있다. 그리고 밀양에 한가지 더 유명한 것으 로 아주 맛있고 달고 과즙이 많은 사과가 있다는 점을 잊 어서는 안 된다. 밀양에서의 시간을 달콤한 추억으로 밀양 사과를 사도록 기억하길 바란다.
I went to the women's waterfall which was also like shower water, but this fall was not straight down; it looked like a water slide that had many curves at a waterpark. As the water flowed down, it curved into the small pond at the bottom. Once again this water was fresh and cool. It was relaxing and once again, I was able to enjoy the serenity of nature. 암가마불폭포로 가서 보니 마찬가지로 샤워기 물 같았지 만, 폭포는 곧장 아래로 떨어지지 않아 마치 워터파크에

Celebrating Success Angle Magazine's 1 Year Anniversary Written and photographed by Philip Brett
On the night of October 11th Angle Magazine promises an audiovisual feast at Daegu’s Jeng-iy Collective in honour of our first birthday celebration. Over the past year, Angle Magazine has worked at showcasing the work of the tremendous talent and creativity that, although abundant, is at times overlooked in the southern regions of the peninsula. It was started by Philip Brett and Joshua Hanlin in Ulsan with the hope of providing a platform to expose this work and to improve and increase the creative community in the south. Whether connecting musicians to their audience, connecting artists with artists, or in one case, connecting musicians with a spoken word artist for an impromptu collaboration, the work that we have been fortunate to feature has inspired people to go see some shows and to create their own art, and that has been truly rewarding. We’ve also been lucky to work with others to celebrate the talent that is out there. Last April, we joined forces with I Like Many Records and [b]racket magazine to create http://daegucompass.com
the Big Day South festival, which was an overwhelming success. As much as we want to introduce you to new work through our site, there is no greater introduction than going out and seeing it for yourself. Big Day South gave people a chance to watch and partake in a creative process from beginning to end, and to see some of the best local bands from the south play live. The one year mark boasts a trail of events that have shared a sentiment Angle strives to promote, that of an inclusive, dynamic, creative culture that gives a sense of community to locals and foreigners, appreciators and creators alike. We have seven musical acts performing on the night. Daegu icons, The March Kings and Dogstar, will each bring their decade of experience to the stage alongside other long-running acts Genius and Tengger, from Busan and Jeju Island respectively. We are also welcoming new talent, with bands who have had between two months and two years experience playing together in The Plastic Kiz, 57, and Damage Ceremony.
Daegu Community Events - Celebrating Success
On the visual side we have our friends from [b]racket (talented artists in their own right) Jess Hinshaw and Christopher Cote making live art using an overhead projector. They will be joined by Daejeon based artist Rachel Rothwell, and more. We also encourage the audience to take part through crowd sourced photography. Disposable cameras will be left around the venue, and we ask you to help us document the night! Finally, we’re delighted to include Daegu’s Time To Give who will provide a Polaroid photobooth where you can dress up with your friends and help to raise funds for a worthy cause. Make sure you come out on October 11th to help us celebrate our first birthday, and to help us support a growing and thriving arts scene here in the south! Hear some new music, watch some live art, and help out a good cause. For more information, visit our website at anglekorea.org or come say hello on facebook.com/anglemagazine

Art in the Park Body Painting Festival's Dazzling Colors Written and photographed by Gary Lynn / Translated by Yujeong Lee
During the Labor Day weekend Daegu held its annual outside event at Druyu Park, The International Body Painting Festival. The two-day event was on Saturday and Sunday. Along with the participants of the show, there were vender selling beauty supplies, toys for the kids and all kinds of Korean food and drinks. Along with face painting and mask making there were artist that would draw your portrait. There was something for the entire family to enjoy. 미국 노동절이었던 지난 주말, 매년 두류공원에서 열리는 야외 행사인 대구국제바디페인팅페스티벌이 대구에서 열 렸다. 토요일과 일요일, 이틀 동안 열리는 행사였다. 쇼에 참가하는 사람들과 함께 미용용품을 파는 부스, 아이들을 위한 장난감을 파는 리어카 그리고 음식과 마실거리를 파 는 포장마차가 즐비했다. 페이스페인팅과 가면을 만드는 곳 근처에는 초상화를 그려주는 곳도 있었다. 모든 사람들 이 다양하게 즐길 수 있는 것들로 가득했다.
The competition had two categories, Fantasy Make- up and Body Painting. There were twenty- five contestants 48
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
in the body painting and only fifteen doing the fantasy make-up. This is considerably less than last year. The countries represented this year were Russia, China, and South Korea, far less than previous years. However, there was a crowd of at least 4,000 on Saturday and about half that on Sunday. I believe that the overcast weather was the main reason for this lack of turnout. 축제의 경쟁부분은 두 카테고리로 나뉘는데, 판타지 메이 크업과 바디페인팅 부분이다. 바디페인팅 부분에는 25 명이 참가했고, 판타지 메이크업 부분에는 15명이 참가 했다. 참가자의 숫자는 작년에 비해 적은 편이었다. 올해 축제에 참가한 나라는 러시아, 중국, 한국 등으로 참가국 의 수도 작년보다 적었다. 그러나 토요일에는 적어도 4 천명, 일요일에는 2천명 정도의 관람객들이 축제를 즐겼 다. 필자의 생각에는 구름이 가득 낀 하늘이 이런 결과 를 만든 것 같다.
Speaking with several of the body painting artist from Korea, this was their first competition. Baek J. Youn , Lim J. Hyun , Jiang Bing Chao and Yoo J. Hyeon all told

me it took 4 to 6 hours to complete their work. Ryu Sang Ah who has two months experience had one of the only two male models. Fu Ju Young of China had the other. 한국의 바디페인팅 경쟁부분 참가자 몇명과 이야기를 했 는데, 모두 이번이 첫 참가이며, 이들 모두 작품을 완성하 는데 4~6시간이 소요되었다고 했다. 두 달의 경력이 있 는 류상아씨는 유일한 남자 모델 두 명 중 한명과 작업했 고, 중국의 후 주 영이 나머지 한 명을 맡았다.
Competing in the fantasy make- up there was Oksana Medvedeva and Alina Milos from Russia. Miss Milos heard about the event from a make –up artist from her home in London England. She said, “I love Daegu and look forward to visiting Korea again”. One of the models is from Russia and has been in prior events, her name is VLandi. She has lived here in Daegu for 10 years. She said, “It’s smaller but nice.” 판타지 메이크업에는 러시아에서 온 옥사나 메드베데바 와 알리나 밀로스가 참가했다. 밀로스는 집이 있는 영국 런던에서 메이크업 아티스트로부터 이 축제에 대해 들었 -continued on p50-

다. 그리고 “저는 대구가 정 말 마음에 들어요. 그리고 한 국을 다시 방문하기를 고대합니다.”라고 말했다. 모델들 중 러시아에서 온 블란디는 지난 대회에도 참가했다. 대구 에서 10년 동안 살았으며 “이번 대회가 규모가 작아졌지 만 그래도 좋네요.”라고 했다.
The MCs of the show Lee Sang Hoon and the beautiful Jeong Yamin kept the show going at a good pace. Introducing the rock band, folk singers and interviewing the artist and the models. 대회 진행자인 이상훈씨와 정야민씨는 락밴드, 트로트 가 수 소개, 아티스트와 모델과의 인터뷰 등 쇼의 진행을 매 끄럽게 잘 이어나갔다.
My personal favorite would have to be a 17-year-old junior in high school competing in the fantasy makeup category, Lim Ji Hyun. Her talents are extraordinary. She transformed model Rae Stassi, an elementary teacher from St. Louis into something from a horror movie. Lim Ji Hyun had a Halloween theme that hit the mark. Her model had blood red eyes and monsters painted on her. It took 6 hours but I think it paid off. 50
DAEGU COMPASS 2014.OCTOBER
개인적으로 가장 마음에 들었던 것은 17살 고등학생 임 지현양이 판타지 메이크업 부분에 참가한 것이었다. 그녀 의 재능은 비범했다. 세인트루이스에서 온 초등학교 영어 교사인 래 스테시를 모델 삼아 호러무비에 등장하는 무언 가로 바꿔놓았다. 임양은 할로윈을 테마로 정하고 그 목 표를 달성했다. 모델은 핏빛 붉은 렌즈를 끼고 몸에는 괴 물이 그려졌다. 6시간이나 소요되었지만 성과가 있었다.
At the end of the show, there was a performance from a dance group from Columbia called Chico Chicas. They have been in Korea only 3 months and were so happy to perform. I would like to give a special thanks to Sam Soohyun Jung the event manager. He allowed me the chance to speak to everyone back stage. This is my 4th year coming to this event and I must say I am impressed each year. Talking with the audience, there are so many people looking forward to the event next year. Telling it like it was, your friend Gary. 쇼의 마지막에는 치코 치카스라고 하는 콜롬비아에서 온 댄스팀의 공연이 있었다. 한국에 온 지 3개월이 되었고 공 연을 하게 되어 무척 기뻐했다. 특별히 축제 매니저인 정 수현씨께 감사드리고 싶다. 정씨는 백스테이지에 있는 모

Suseong Lake area is one of the classiest places in Daegu, a perfect date area. After taking your sweetheart out to a nice meal, I’d recommend Napoli, Ganga, La Bella Cucina or New York New York, take a stroll around Suseong Lake until you come upon the famous ‘duck boats’ and paddle your way into each other’s hearts. Thanks to the photogs who took the great pics you see here. Aygul Sarvarova, Jeremy Taylor and Chanel Barlow. Photos by Aygul Sarvarova, Chanel Barlow and Jeremy Taylor
Suseong Lake area offers a change of pace to the hustle and bustle of downtown. Suseong Lake also boasts an amusement park (Suseong Land) reminiscent of those carnivals you went to with your parents at the local fair ground. There’s something to be said when you are on the back of the seahorse with a safety bar that barely locks you in place as you float for a few brief seconds in mid-air before being plunged back down in your seat. Thrilling, exhilarating are just a few choice words to describe the experience.

Seomun Market is Daegu’s biggest market. Each type of product is concentrated in a specific area. BARGAIN, it’s challenging, but fun. We hope you have an awesome time and try to enjoy and see as much of the market as possible. We would like to thank Dyren J. Billups-Adam for his photos of the different areas. Thanks bud!

Daebong-dong Barazi Barazi brings Japanese flair to Daegu. Barazi specializes in great Japanese cuisine. The restaurant feels like a home away from home. The soothing atmosphere provides customers a chance to relax with a cup of tea or some warm saki! The owner of Barazi is also an expert florist and can help arrange all your floral needs. Check the Bangcheon Market Compass Map on p59 for directions. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions. 12PM~12AM • 010-4505-3396 • 13-16, Dalgubeoldaeto446-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu
Gajok Gajok means 'family' in Korean. That's the feeling you get when you step inside this wonderful Korean restaurant. Now, before you start to get a mental picture of the food it serves, just know that most of the meat is from the thigh and not the actual foot. What??? Yes, Gajok serves pig's foot for dinner.. But it's not like you are eating the hoof of the pig. In Korea, the foot and leg seems to go hand in hand, so it is similar to eating drumsticks (chicken legs). Enjoy! Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions. 1PM~1AM • 053-252-1481 • 7-16, Dalgubeoldaeto446-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu
Daehan News / Two Ppul Grilled over an open flame. That's the concept behind Daehan News and Two Ppul. After selecting your choice of steak or pork, a server really heats things up as it cooks your meat with a mini blowtorch. Sounds hot, right? The Korean sides provided compliment the meal perfectly. The interior of both restaurants is in true Korean 'pojang macha' style where dining around a stainless steel table with clear plastic walls sheltering you from the elements. So next time its Korean night, head on over to either of these meaty restaurants. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions. <Daeghan News> 12PM~12AM • 053-423-3990 • 6, Dalgubeoldaeto446-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu <Two Ppul> 5PM~1AM • 053-422-1033 • 7-15, Dalgubeoldaeto446-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu
Pic&iq VIP treatment at Pic&iq is what you get when dining at this special restaurant. The owner and chef caters personally to your dinner party since you have to make a reservation before coming. Why, you might wonder? Pic&iq is only opened from 6-10pm, and you can call from 3pm to reserve one of four tables. The dinner is a set menu of grilled, marinated pork, tortilla bread, salad and grilled tomatoes and bananas. The chef also prepares a special ramyeon for the meal. VIP treatment without the VIP prices makes this a wonderful experience. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions. 6PM~11PM • 053-253-9782 • 2232-15, Dalgubeol-daero, Jung-gu, Daegu closed on Sundays
Kim Gwang-suk Road Not far from bustling downtown next to the Bangcheon Marketplace, Kim Kwang-suk Road is a lengthy alleyway that displays several murals and other small works of art upon its walls, dedicated to the popular Korean folk singer in the late 80’s and early 90’s, Kim Kwang-suk (1964~1996). He was well loved by the younger generations at the time for his soulful vocals and contemplative lyrics which deeply reflected the transition of Korea in late 80s. The area is quite isolated, taking you away from the busy and hectic city life, and dropping you into a surrealistic wonderland of art where time seems to be still for a moment.
