A Journey Through Time and Imagination


Our August adventure was a unique blend of high-tech and heartfelt creativity. We started our day with a ride on the world's only XR Bus around Suwon Hwaseong Fortress. As we settled into our seats, the windows transformed into screens, and suddenly we weren't just tourists—we were time travelers. History came alive around us in a breathtaking display of extended reality. The shared gasps of wonder created an instant bond, a collective adventure that needed no translation.


After our trip through time, we cooled off with ice cream and took a walk along the fortress walls, conversations flowing easily. The afternoon brought a change of pace. We found a charming cafe called "Drawing the Haenggung" and settled in for a session of creative expression. With colored pencils, pastels, and watercolors, we transitioned from consuming culture to creating it.


The cafe was filled with a quiet, focused energy as everyone worked on their art. One of the most delightful moments was when a participant drew a portrait of the cafe owner's cat, much to everyone's amusement. This beautiful day, moving from cutting-edge technology to the simple, timeless joy of making art, perfectly captured the dynamic spirit of Korea and our community.
