名前 : オルゴミ家族 職業 : ヤマメ氷祭りの宣伝, 祭りの会場の維持及び管理。 趣味 : ヤマメ釣り, 遊ぶ人々の見物。 住まい : 以前, 北極に住んでいましたが2002年ある冬の夜, 偶々華川に来ました。 故郷に帰ろうかなと考えましたが華川が大好きになり華川住民になりました。 夏は暑いので生活し辛く"夏篭り"に入ります。 好み : ヤマメ, 氷そり, 雪そり, カワウソの家やオルトとダントの家の訪問など。_ ヤマメというのは何ですか?
ヤマメは水温が年中20度以下の清く澄んだ水でのみ棲息するサーモン科の冷水性魚類です。江原道地域に棲息する淡水ヤマメは背にあるパーマーク(幼魚斑)が特に美しく「渓谷の女王」と呼ばれる魚です。ヤマメは珍しい魚ですが, 種が絶える魚類ではありません。肉が締まっていて, 噛むとしこしこして, とても美味しいです。
_ 華川川
華川川というのは華川にある川で, 韓国では広くて長い流れるものを「江」と言い, それより規模が小さいのを「川」と呼びます。華川の市内の隣にあり, 川の幅は80~130mで, ヤマメ氷祭りの時はこの川の水をせき止めて厚さ30~40cm以上で凍らせます。会場の長さはおよそ2キロメートルです。
