I did not stay too long, just enough to interview. It was efficient, very cordial, promising and impressive. At the entrance to the city, I noticed "It's Daejeon" in bright colors, plastered on fences, and other available surfaces. I've read a few blogs trying to figure out what it means, and whether it is meant for the Koreans or the foreigners,etc. My take on it is not what it really says, but rather the color and the design the letters are organized to say. It is cheerful, colorful, multi-pixel, mentions the name of the city, and exclamatory: It is no where else, but Daejeon. And, I think it is geared towards anybody who sees it and gets it. I did not see most of the city. However, the confluence of the rivers, the sunken sidewalks, the clean streets, the efficiency of the bus system impressed me. I am sure I missed a lot, but determined to watch this site and others to see what I can learn about living in Daejeon. Hello all,
