Baengnokdam does not allow easy appearance due to the rushing clouds and fog.
The great majesty that we encountered at the end of the wait.
Every ridge of Baengnokdam, where the wind blew through, turned white.
On Mt. Halla in full bloom, frost flowers fell and I changed into winter clothes before I knew it.
[Bae Jeong-hyeon / Namhae-gun, Gyeongnam: It's so good.
It seems that the frustration I've been feeling in the past is getting rid of it, and only good things seem to happen in the future.
Everyone, do your best.]
Frostflower, called Sanggodae, is a phenomenon in which fog or clouds freeze like snow.
The observation of Hallasan Sanggodae was the first in a week since the first ice of this fall was confirmed at Baengnokdam on the 11th, and one day later than last year.
At an elevation of 1,500 meters above sea level in Hallasan Mountain, frost flowers bloom on each branch like this, creating a midwinter atmosphere.
The morning minimum temperature at Witse Oreum in Hallasan was -2 degrees below zero, and Baengnokdam was the lowest this fall, dropping nearly -4 degrees below zero.
The wind blew strongly, bringing the temperature down even more.
The pure white Sanggodae blooming on the five colored leaves is one of the hidden wonders of Mt. Halla, where autumn and winter coexist.
[Kim Hee-ja / Lee Do-dong, Jeju City: It's so beautiful.
The frosty look is like a snowflake, and it feels like I'm in a white kingdom, so it's so beautiful and good.]
Leaving behind the unusually beautiful autumn leaves this year, Mt. Halla has already finished preparing for winter.
