Reader-added tags for now consist of "Repairs like the Great Wall of China" and "Bureaucracy: 'Not interested.'".

It's more of a safety reasons, really. Since people loves to take picture on that lone pine tree, there's a risk of the ground underneath collapsing (since it's jutting out without any support). Thus, the 'repairs' or actually 'structural reinforcement' was issued. Since putting a pillar beneath that pier just won't work with how high and strong the waves, they used the concrete filling method, which makes it looks like a general fortified slope. More 'adjusment' was made later, adding a layer of rock into the concrete to make it look more natural, but hey.

Not quite far south enough. He probably gets mail mis-delivered there, too.
