Bagi pecinta drama korea, serial Winter Sonata mungkin jadi pemicu atau pioneer demam K-POP. Dan yang menjadi tempat memorable di serial (katanya lho yah hahhaha) adalah Nami Island.

Nami Island (남이섬 종합휴양지) adalah sebuah pulau kecil 63km di sebelah Timur kota Seoul.

Dibuat seolah-olah sebuah republik sendiri, ngakunya Naminara Republic. Jadi kalau mau masuk ke pulau ini kita harus apply 'visa' alias tiket. Tiket masuk Nami Island adalah 10,000 Won per orang, sudah termasuk tiket ferry menyeberang ke pulau. Dermaga ferry juga diberi istilah 'immigration'.

Perjalanan ferry sekitar 10 menit, untuk pertama kali baiknya duduk di kabin dalam sambil nonton introduction slide lewat TV supaya dapat gambaran spot foto.

Tiba di dermaga pulau Nami, kita akan melewat gate traditional korea. Selepas ini kita boleh bebas berseliweran di pulau ini (yang penting ingat jam pulang). Tidak ada kendaraan karena pulau ini cuma seuprit.

Untuk lebih puas, sewalah sepeda untuk berkeliling pulau (3000 won/30 menit atau 5000 won/jam). Dengan sepeda kita bisa menjelajah ke pinggiran yang jauh lebih sepi dari turis lain.
