Gwangan Bridge, Busan: Your Evening View While You Study

Gwangan Bridge (Gwangandaegyo) is one of Busan's most recognizable landmarks -- a suspension bridge over Gwangalli Beach that lights up in changing colors every night. For students studying in Busan, the bridge and its beachfront neighborhood (Gwangalli) are an easy, low-cost place to unwind after class: cafes and restaurants line the beach, and the light show along the bridge runs after dark most evenings. It is a good reminder that studying in Korea does not have to mean giving up city life or scenery -- in Busan, a view like this can be part of an ordinary weekday evening. Watch the short clip above for a glimpse of what it actually looks like.
