Freckles and mole removing

Freckles and mole removing

It’s my son’s dermatology appointment day, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to have my facial freckles and moles removed as well.  The total cost for my freckle removal, my son’s mole removal, and mine, plus a 28,000 won post-treatment cream, is under 300,000 won. I contacted the clinic’s reservation desk to…

June 2025:Vitiligo treatment

3th times-June 3 Today, All of family is visiting Daegu for dermatology and pediatric appointments.  Fortunately, the pediatrician’s office is conveniently located near our dermatology appointment. While at the pediatrician’s office, I learned about a nearby dermatologist who previously treated a child with hemangioma at Gyeongbuk Hospital. I subsequently took my daughter to see this…

6th parents academy

6th parents academy

Having never attended an art therapy lecture before, I understand that it is related to human psychology and care. Last week’s session covered music therapy, and today’s focus is painting. Upon entering the classroom, I noticed paper, colored pencils, and what seemed to be letters on each desk, though only about half of the participants…

Tooth out

Tooth out

My son told me that one of his teeth feels loose after he bit into a peach. After checking it, it appears ready to come out. He would prefer a dentist remove it rather than trying to do it at home. dentists, as he has only gone for checkups. I remember a family member helping…

Review:A LEGO class for children

Review:A LEGO class for children

It was my first LEGO class, and I was curious about what to expect, particularly whether parents would be present with their children. Each child required a guardian in the class. The teacher politely called each child’s name. The class centered on constructing a rescue helicopter to combat a large wildfire in Gyeongbuk. We viewed…

5th parents academy

5th parents academy

It’s wonderful to have been here for so long.  This class focuses on healing, so we don’t need to concentrate intently on everything the teacher says; we can simply relax and enjoy the music. He’s prepared a healing session with three themes: memory, nature, and humanity. For each theme, he shares a personal story. The…

Rash

Rash

Following a three-day trip to Yeongdeok, my daughter developed an itchy rash that didn’t respond to home treatment. Online research suggested antiviral medication, which initially seemed helpful; however, the rash reappeared in different locations on her upper body after she overheated. We sought medical attention the next day, and the doctor diagnosed a rash, prescribed…

Yeongdeok trip

Yeongdeok trip

The Gyeongbuk children’s program is delightful. This is my first visit to Yeongdeok, and I will need to transfer trains at Gyeongju Station to reach Goraebul. Train tickets from Bujeon to Gangneung on the Donghae line sold out quickly; news reports indicated high demand for the Donghae line between Bujeon and Gangneung, and my train…

May 23rd to the 30th:Vitiligo treatment

My son’s hand exhibited an unusual discoloration in a localized area. While I initially suspected residual sticker adhesive, the discoloration persisted. I was quite concerned about the possibility of leukoderma due to a family history of genetic skin conditions. I decided to seek a dermatologist’s opinion as soon as possible, scheduling an appointment the very next…

Lively codfish restaurant

Lively codfish restaurant

This is my first time dining at the Lively Codfish Restaurant. I have previously enjoyed cod but was initially hesitant about “lively” cod due to a lack of visible signs indicating fresh ingredients. However, the restaurant’s name and the visible codfish tank outside clearly suggest the freshness of their ingredients. I ordered the clear fish…

Review of Candy Musical

Review of Candy Musical

My children and I had the pleasure of attending a musical in Yeongcheon for the very first time. The first-floor tickets sold out remarkably quickly, within ten minutes of online booking opening. Tickets were affordably priced at 5,000 won per person for Yeongcheon residents.  The show, a delightful adaptation of the book “Candy,” was quite…

3rd lecture of Parent Academy

3rd lecture of Parent Academy

Today’s lecture will focus on children’s education. It’s a complex topic for parents, particularly addressing challenging interpersonal situations. Many of the examples the lecturer shared were quite sensitive, and it was difficult to know how to respond appropriately. I understand that the peak season for education requests may be influenced by media coverage of crime….

2nd lecture of Parent Academy

2nd lecture of Parent Academy

Today, I attended a lecture for parents.  I noticed that approximately half the audience was not present. The lecture emphasized the importance of emotional connection with children in raising them. However, I personally haven’t experienced a strong emotional bond with my own parents or elders, making it challenging to foster generosity in my children. I’m…

Sunday at care center 2

Sunday at care center 2

I informed the nearest care center about my child’s enrollment three or four days in advance, on Sunday. I was advised that a packed lunchbox was required due to a government regulation. Preparing the lunchbox early that morning was a significant task, but it was also a welcome preparation for the parents’ upcoming free time. …

1st lecture of Parent Academy

1st lecture of Parent Academy

It was an exciting moment to attend a lecture course for parents on positive parenting. The course ran from 10 to 12, lasting two hours. The main topic was positive attitudes for children. Many aspects of the lecture were impressive; one method I’m applying is asking children about their emotional state to connect with them….

Sunday in childcare

Sunday in childcare

Hey, so I’m checking out this K care 6000 thing in Yeongchenon. Is it any good, and how does it all work? One place was short-staffed on Sundays, then I found out they *do* have a Sunday program, but not this weekend.  The second place was fine – I called Friday and they were open…

A course for child and me

A course for child and me

There was a lecture designed for fathers and their children. I was thrilled to have a fun time with my child, as this was our first lecture together. We hurried to join the class, and he was very excited to spend time with me. However, the class wasn’t engaging for most of the time, except for…

Swimming pool

Swimming pool

This is my first time swimming at the Yeongcheon pool, which I believe is the only public swimming facility here. It’s government-run and seems to be used for swimming competitions. I paid at the counter instead of using the kiosk machine, and then proceeded to the pool area after going through a hallway with treadmills….

Eworld tirp

Eworld tirp

The pleasant weather was ideal for a family outing. My family and I planned a visit to Eworld, a theme park in Daegu that boasts numerous rides and a zoo. The weather is a significant factor in enjoying an outdoor park. Although it was suitable for photography, it was rather cool. Upon arrival, I felt quite cold…

Denied Garbage

Denied Garbage

I observed that garbage collectors may refuse overweight garbage bags.  A review of the garbage sticker revealed that the bag exceeded the weight limit. This is a prudent safety measure for sanitation workers, as it helps prevent injuries. I sincerely hope that all sanitation workers remain safe on the job. Improved workplace safety measures are…

Saw a car crash again

Saw a car crash again

I witnessed a strange and unsettling car accident, eerily similar to one I saw recently nearby. Both accidents involved a car turning while another proceeded straight. Sadly, this accident involved Hakwon’s car, and there’s a possibility that some students were in it. I recently observed two multi-vehicle car accidents. I also remember several near-misses involving cars and…

Review of Gyeongbuk Multi-Child Family Agricultural Products Support Project

Review of Gyeongbuk Multi-Child Family Agricultural Products Support Project

It has a voucher to purchase agricultural products online. After several attempts to find desirable items, I finally discovered a lovely local product. Its attractive packaging and printed local name make it an excellent souvenir. It feels as though I’ve visited MunGyeong. I was unaware that the region was renowned for Omija. The wafer has a subtly…

(1) Review of Our Neighborhood Dad’s Classroom

(1) Review of Our Neighborhood Dad’s Classroom

I appreciate the organizers’ kind reminder about Saturday’s class. Their message specifying the location and necessary materials was very helpful. I haven’t experienced a class exclusively for fathers before. Many children’s programs seem geared towards mothers and children. This class’s subject is Read Aloud with Dad. After a short introduction to my father’s classroom, I noticed…

Car crash 💥

Car crash 💥

This is my first time witnessing a car accident. I can see activity inside the bus.  Many police cars, ambulances, and people are gathering, and some officers are working to prevent a second accident. Paramedics are carefully removing the injured driver from the car, which appears to be difficult. The injured person seems to be…
