There are roads in Korea that feel less like infrastructure and more like an invitation. Gangwon-do's east coast is full of them — two-lane strips of asphalt that cling to sea cliffs, dip through fishing villages, and occasionally bring you so close to the water that salt spray finds its way through your cracked window. Whether you're chasing the first light at Chuam Candle Rock or threading through coastal curves with a camera bag riding shotgun, this stretch of coastline delivers the kind of driving and photography that stays with you long after you've returned the rental keys.
