The Coastal Flavor Anchor
A smaller east-coast town where seafood identity, port texture, and shoreline air make the route feel regionally specific.
Yeongdeok is less about major-city concentration and more about clarity of flavor. It gives the east coast line a local face, especially when the route needs food, fishing-port character, and one smaller-town chapter before larger southeastern cities take over.
