From olden times, when talking about Moran Hill, one of beauty spots in Korea, the Koreans counted first the sight of “welcoming the first full moon on the Pubyok Pavilion”, one of the eight famous scenes in Pyongyang.
But now the Kaeson Youth Park at the foot of the hill is more attractive than the view as the park is illuminated at night brightly enough to put stars of the sky in the shade, resounding with constant laughter.
Laughter and shouts of joy from the park make passers-by feel an impulse to drop in there.
The illuminated Z-force you can notice even from afar is the symbol of the park, enticing anybody to ride.
It raises riders up to a height of dozens of metres within a few seconds.
Its charm is to land at a speed of 15 metres per second.
People wear different expressions of the indescribable feelings they feel while riding the amusement facility.
The pleasure in riding the facility is good and there are people who can hardly stop laughing seeing different amusing faces of the riders.
After getting off the facility, Jon Kyong Ran, a woman living in Songyo District, Pyongyang, said, “I closed my eyes tight as I was so tense. I opened my eyes when it stopped in the air for a while. Then I could see a really beautiful view of Pyongyang.”
Volare is one of the most popular facilities, whose inertia cars depart in a standing position and run at fast speeds while revolving right and left in a lying position like a plane does in the air. Other enticing facilities include the grand Pirate which seems to cleave its way through the boundless expanse of water and Power Surge which turns round with its arms in the shape of the octopus’ dancing to make the seats on them revolve, thereby giving the riders an impression that they are making free fall.
Spectacular is also the sight of the people riding Discovery, including a girl tightly shutting her eyes, a woman screaming unawares in confusion and a young man proudly waving his hand looking down upon those on the ground.
The operator of the facility also laughs looking at the riders.
“They seem to shout, ‘Higher and farther’. The louder their shouts full of happiness grows, the stronger attachment I have to my job,” said the operator.
