Workation in Tongyeong: the essentials

Spread over the Goseong Peninsula, Mireuk Island and a scatter of smaller isles, Tongyeong takes its name, meaning command post, from the naval base of Admiral Yi Sun-sin on nearby Hansan Island. Around 140,000 people live in this fishing and shipbuilding city beside Hallyeohaesang National Park, known in Korea as the country's Naples. The Mireuksan cable car, the Dongpirang mural village and the Jungang fish market fill the first days, ferries run out to the islands, and an international music festival takes place in spring. There is no train, so you arrive by bus, and Sacheon Airport is about 42 km away. Outside the holiday weeks it can feel remote.
