The Southwest Harbor Finale

A port city of Yudalsan views, Gatbawi geology, seafood, ferries, modern history streets, and Dadohae sunset.

Mokpo matters because Route 6 needs a real finale, not only a last dot. The city gathers West Sea memory, southwest seafood, island departure, modern port history, and mountain-to-harbor views before the network can later expand along the south coast.
