"The Dream of the Sea Dragon Palace" Welcome This beautiful dream is created for you, to soothe your weary body and mind after your journey at sea. Hearts floating on the sea drift and shimmer in the realm of dreams. The magnificent Sea Dragon Palace, both illusory and real, comforts the lonely soul. Ah, it turns out that living is to return to the dream.

Boarding the old fishing boat, the captain's cabin transforms into a fully entertaining lounge, despite its small and pitiful space. The background music consists of Indonesian folk songs sung by migrant fishermen. The vibrant neon lights create an atmosphere akin to a dream, where reality intertwines. It also reveals the hardship of the fishermen and the underlying melancholy in each person's heart.
