Daedong Sunset Begins Above Someone’s Home
Leave Daedong Station Exit 8 about 60–90 minutes before sunset, allow more than the official 20-minute uphill estimate, wait at one unobtrusive viewpoint, and descend by a lit main road, bus, or taxi. The hill is a residential neighborhood first: doors, windows, residents, deliveries, and the quiet of evening come before photographs.
