SEOUL: Nami Island, famed for its picturesque tree-lined roads and synonymous with the 2002 romantic South Korean drama series “Winter Sonata”, will welcome a special delegation of Malaysians next week. Nami Island’s zipline ride is over 3,000ft long and extends over a river, from a dock on the mainland to the island. We have a piece of Langkawi here, in the form of Langkawi Garden, while (the) Nami Garden is in Langkawi. When contacted, Bakhtiar said that the delegation’s objective is to learn as much as possible from Nami Island about tourism. The Malaysian soap opera “The Calling of Nami Island” was, of course, filmed in Nami; as have countless television and movie productions from Thailand, the Philippines and China, among others.
