It looks like little birds singing "caw-caw"; it also looks like two fishes heading in opposite directions.

"The train will soon be arriving at Seoul Station. Passengers getting off at Seoul, thank you for riding with us today, and have a pleasant trip." Through this train announcement, my trip started.
