On January 9th 2024 AD the Korean general cargo DK IMAN (not DKNY!!!) passed thru the Kanmon Strait between Shimonoseki and Moji Kitakyushu on its way to Fukuyama Japan from Pyeongtaek Korea. The Jeju based DK IMAN (109 m) looks tiny next to CMA CGM CHOPIN (277 m). Ship Freakazoid used an Olympus E520 DSLR with Zuiko 40-150mm lens to capture this vessel on digital "film" for fellow ship freaks to enjoy.  DK IMAN's home port is apparently Jeju Korea.  Never been, but would love to visit as it is supposed to be lovely.
