In the middle of busy Gangnam, Seoul. Amidst the dense forest of buildings, a green forest that feels a bit unfamiliar. This is Yang Dal-sam’s vegetable garden on the rooftop of a four-story building. This is his 13th year of rooftop farming. It is filled with various fruits and vegetables. Known for his good farming, his philosophy is natural farming. Not only does he not use chemical fertilizers, but he also uses leaves and barley seeds instead of soil to make soil due to the nature of the rooftop. Although he is now a veteran farmer, his original occupation was a movie actor. He said that he wanted to do something he wanted to do before it was too late because of the uncertain and empty life of not knowing what tomorrow would bring. He says that the joy of farming is preparing special food with fruits and vegetables harvested from the rooftop with his sister, brother-in-law, and nephew from the United States and enjoying them together. “Isn’t that what envy is? If you think about it, it grows endlessly, but if you don’t think about it, there is none.” Happy farmer Yang Dal-sam. Living a rich life in a tough city, realizing his own romanticism. #KoreaTravel #InTheMiddleofGangnam #RooftopFarming #UrbanFarmer #Lifestyle
