Then, Haeundae pops up, as it is the best beach in Busan. There’s a hill named “Dalmaji-gil Road” in one corner of Haeundae beach. Also known as the Dalmaji Hill among the local residents, the street was given the name “dalmaji (meaning ‘welcoming the full moon’ in Korean)” as you can see the ocean down the steep hill and the moon rising above the sea. On this hill, which gives off a unique vibe just by its name, there’s a hidden place that only a few know. It is “The Library of Mystery Literature,” which is said to be the one and only library specializing in mystery fiction in both Korea and the world. The combination of the moon, sea, hill, and mystery makes us feel as if we have come inside a novel already. Excited to find out what kind of ...
