Jeju Island Day 6 on Bromptons (The Last Stage) - Mission Completed

Good morning Sehwa, a place is a quiet and small community. We were ready to resume our ride to Jeju City for the final stage. As for the weather it was good we took our bikes out to look for breakfast.
We visited a small hypermarket and surveying the stuffs that are found in the mart.
There were limited places serving breakfast as we encountered a few that were still closed for business. After a couple of checking and peeping through the shops we found this shop. The stewed pork bone soup was awesome. It was kind of like our Malaysian Bak Kut Teh and a big Thumb-Up for this find.
This is the super yummy "Bak Kut Teh" the broth was simply delicious, another special Korean delicacy we found by accident.
A delicious ramen dish enjoyed mostly by the locals, it is rare to see foreigners in the shop as we can tell by the reaction of the people in the shop. But they are extremely friendly and helpful. What a awesome breakfast for the day.
One of the few exhibits seen outside of the many cafes.
The outdoor of Haenyeo Museum at Gujwa- eup (GPS : 33.523318, 126.862895). This monument is to commemorate the hero whom sacrificed their lives during the Japanese Occupation.
We discovered Jo had a puncture at the rear wheel and need to be fixed. Spare tube is always available for such situation.
Goodbye Manjo Stay @ Sehwa we were satisfied with its hospitality and thank you to the lady's recommendation from Halla Pork Restaurant.
Time and again seeing windmill turbines along the tour.
Another mural depicting the popular Haenyeo women divers on the buildings.
 Out of our cycling monotony we were suddenly greeted with a crowded beach spot called Woljeong-ri Beach, it is known for its scenery, tranquil white sand and beautiful emerald ocean. A stretch of with many cozy and beautiful cafes along. GPS : 33.556576, 126.801090
Zuyi forgot to take his bag, it was left on this bench untouched for a while and only realised it after riding 4km away from the place. I had to ride back to recover it while the rest waited for me. Thank goodness it was still there.
Korea Institute of Energy Research @ GPS : 33.564376, 126.774303 the Korean are working on marine energy and its potential. Let's think hard!
The ultimate mission, we managed to sealed the last stamp at booth no.10 and it is mission completed for Jeju Fantasy Bicycle Path.
This is the last booth and we found it at Hamdeok Seoubong Beach. All of us were fully satisfied with the completion of our stamping mission.
Hamdeok Beach is famous for its clean and shallow water, attracting many visitors during summer vacation. The beach offers great scenery with its emerald-blue water, an arched bridge over black basalt and a red lighthouse.
I guess these Koreans were cleaning the beach... isn't it or everyone can tell me what is the significant of this statue.
We make it! We were already close to our completion line and one for the road at Hamdeok Beach.
We checked in to this motel at this address and tomorrow we will see more of Jeju City.
A short walk from the motel and we found a quiet shop that serves delicious meal.
Once again well done to the team for successfully completing the loop safely. Special congratulation to Lynn and Zuyi for doing it the first time and I hope you will continue to cycle.
