The dawn of 2024 has already unfolded, bringing with it the promise and potential of a new year. On the morning of New Year's Day, I found myself at the base of Mount Nam, embarking on my customary early climb. The familiar path was adorned with a vibrant energy that transformed the routine into something distinctly different. The air felt charged, and the people around me exuded a sense of renewal, creating an atmosphere of anticipation. Namsan Tower, adorned with countless love locks and wishes, stood as a testament to our collective aspirations.
