So eye opening, we learnt a lot and Moon was kind enough to share her own story with the tour group. Being one of her moonwalkers you’ll feel the impact of the separation of Korea over the day. It ran very smoothly and didn’t feel rushed. I would love to go again with family and would definitely recommend going with Moon!
Thank you Moon

Our tour guide was very informative and the emotional history of Moon's grandmother really painted a picture on how lucky we are and how horrible life during the Korean war would've been for the seperated family members. The observatory was a highlight for me, I'd recommend bringing binoculars but stationary ones are available to use.
