What is the reason we can see the sunrise, sunset and moonrise here?

This is due to the distinct geography feature of the port. Waemok village is located at the far west boundary of Korean peninsula. The seashore is a bit coved outward to the east. The horizon is at the same direction as the east cost. You can see the sunrise, sunset and moonrise at once plce.  
  
The only place in Korea

When you climb up to the top of Mat. Seokmun (79m), you can see the magnificent view of Yongmuchi through Gukhwado in Hwaseong-gun. This is where you can see the sunrise and moonrise. We can see the sunset between Great Nanji Island and Small Nanji Island.
  
The merits of sunrise and sunset in Waemok Village

While the sunrise in East Coast is grandeur and sumptuous, the sunrise here is rather serene and humble. The sunset is already widely known for its magnificient view. During the susent, the ocean gets burning red flame like color, and this is one of the most recommended tourist attractions in the west coast.
※ Relatively longer period to see the sunrise, sunset and moonrise during a year (min 180 days)
