Backpacking in south coast of Korea 2

Third day, we moved to Haenam and just visited famous place because we didn't want to waste our time. I remember that was a temple in national park. Anyway, almost dark night, we could got on the bus to go to Ttangkkeut(the land's edge in korea). Around 10 oclock, we went to Ttangkkeut and we made a plan to stay whole night at the top of the mountain for watching sunrise. Because Ttangkkeut is so famous with sunrise! we wanted save money, obviously, so we went to the observation tower on the top of the mountain. Before went to there, we had known that the observation tower was 24hours open. Right now i think about that, we were so stupid. Past midnight, we arrived the tower and found that was closed. There was no place to stay night!! we had no choice, we needed to watching sunrise and saved money. Therefore, we just had slept on some benches. After one hour, we felt freezing and thought if we were sleeping in here we would be dead. we had to slove this problem but still night was young. so guess what? we just went to washroom for taking shelter from wild sea wind. It was so awful and painful to keep staying there, so got out of there and went to a kind of lighthouse. But it was also so small for three people,unfortunately,we were going to be crazy. so we went here and there till daybreak. However, wheater was cloulded in the morning. Therefore, we couldn't see sunrise unluckily. we were so pissed off about the weather and thought that it couldn't be any worse!!!
Anyway, we had early breakfast and moved to Bosung fastly by bus.

I would have been pissed off too. You guys are so brave though! I can't see girls sleeping on benches for the night... I would have freaked out!!!
