The Korean nation has lived in harmony for thousands of years until the mid-20th century when it was bisected by foreign forces. However, national harmony, or national commonness, runs steady and deep across the barrier. Monggumpho, as the name goes, is said of a fine scenery which can be seen in a dream. At high tide it looks like an elephant dipping its lengthy trunk into the sea water to drink water, and at low tide exposing its full body on the tidal flat. Viewed from the rock downward, one can see the full spectacle of waves beating upon the curious-looking rocks lying like a folding screen to form the cloud of mist, and presenting a view of wonderful cliffs and rocks, its beauty similar to rock mass in sea kumgang.
Natural wealth is found in abundance here.
The sand is in wide use not only as a raw material for glass but casting along with that in Kumipho. It abounds in effective medicinal herbs including parsnip. Sea shores teem with pacific sand launce, sea cucumber, anchovy, oyster, lobster and kelp. The swimming beach surrounded by recreation parks is crowded with holiday-makers in the summer season.
