This is Homigot Sunrise Plaza where you can view both hands in this photo. On New Years, thousands of people gather for the first sunrise of the year.

During sunrise, the sun appears to be held in this ocean hand. I've only seen the pictures & it looks very picturesque. This hand doesn't look large, but don't you be fooled by this trick photography.
This interesting thing is the first of four models in the world. It's a "sunlight fire collector" that captures the sun's energy & converts it into a flame. I guess it's sealed in plexi-glass to keep it from starting fires all over the place? In all seriousness, I was fascinated with it.
This sign states that this is the biggest cooking pot in Korea. It was used to make rice cake soup for 20,000 people on New Years Day 2004.
For what it's worth, at one point in high school I was actually a lifeguard.


Here I am, still intrigued with these hands.
