    I went on a field trip to a middle school, and at first I wondered what they were doing there, but the moment I saw the Cheonan, my thoughts changed. As they looked at the Cheonan, which was cut in half, the kids said, “Someone died over there.” I knew about West Sea Protection Day, but I didn't know the details. However, when I got there, the soldier kindly explained it to me, so I understood it well. First of all, there was a military police officer at the entrance to direct traffic. And it's a great place to come to school or with your family. You can see many ships such as our country's security, Cheonan, and Chamsuri high-speed ships. And finally May the 46 people who died protecting our country’s West Sea rest in peace. “You are our country’s true heroes.”

    (Translated by Google) The ship Cheonan came close to my heart... The warship Cheonan was filled with heartbreak and disappointment in front of the sacrifices of our sons and brothers...I saw the reality of North Korea's hostility in confrontation with us...I recommend visiting if you have the opportunity... (Original) 가슴으로 먹먹하게 다가온 천안함... 우리의 아들이고 형제인 그들의 희생앞에서 가슴 착잡함과 먹먹함이 다가온 천안함...우리와 대치 관계에 있는 북한의 적대감을 드러낸 현실을 보았다...기회가 있으면 방문을 해보기를 권합니다...

    (Translated by Google) It is recommended that you visit it to raise awareness of security. Seeing the attack on the Chamsuri and the bombing on the Cheonan in person gives a distinctly different feel. I think it would be nice to be designated as a compulsory school field trip course. You can make a reservation on the Navy website at least 3 days before your visit, but if you have difficulty making a reservation, please contact us by phone. If there were few visitors, there was an atmosphere (?) that allowed entry without a reservation on site. It would have been better if there was an explanation from a naval officer. (Original) 안보의식의 고취를 위해 꼭 방문해 보시는걸 추천드립니다. 피격 당한 참수리호와 피폭당힌 천안함을 직접보면 느낌이 확실히 다릅니다. 학교 필수 견학코스로 지정돼도 좋을 것 같습니다. 방문 3일전까지만 해군 홈페이지에서 예약하면 되는데 예약이 힘드신분은 전화로 문의 해보시길 바랍니다. 방문객이 적다면 현장에서 예약없이도 입장이 가능한 분위기(?)가 있었습니다. 해군장병의 설명이 있어 더 좋았습니다.

    Overall, it is easy to understand the explanation of the Navy and the West Sea that we protect, and we can see how we were able to protect our seas thanks to North Korea's provocations and the sacrifices of many members of our Navy. During group tours, Navy sailors provide friendly explanations, and the Chamsuri speedboat and Cheonan ship are on display. I think it will be very helpful to visit to establish a national and security perspective, and I recommend it.

    Very somber place. I wish more people had the opportunity to see what North Korea is capable of and how recent this took place.

    (Translated by Google) A place that every citizen should come and see. A place where you can see the Battle of the West Sea and the Cheonan and realize the importance of security! (Original) 국민이라면 누구라도 와서 봐야할 곳. 서해교전과 천안함을 볼 수 있고, 안보의 중요성을 깨달을 수 있는 곳!
