Introduction to JEJU, one of the Most Beautiful Islands in Northeast Asia!





Jeju Island is one of the most beautiful islands in North-East Asia located just under one hour by air from Seoul, the capital city of South Korea. Being of volcanic origin Jeju has 368 smaller peaks formed by craters of volcanic activities, with Mt. Halla (1950m) in the center of the island - it is an extinct volcano with a big crater on the top and lush vegetation growing down to the very seaside.

The population just grown over 6 hundred thousand last year (2013), and still growing. The recent growth of population in JEJU island is expected to continue, but the increase seems to be much concentrated on JEJU city, which is the nothern half of the island, while the rate is not as rapid on the other half. That is probably because most important facilities and economy's being invested on the closer from the main ports and the airport that are located more in JEJU area than SEOGUIPO, which is the southern half of the island.

A Unique Dialect had been used in JEJU in the older days, but most population is used to using standard Korean language(dialect of Seoul region) nowadays. It is most probably due to educational policy that had been kept since around 1960's.

JEJU's Geography

Geography of JEJU Island
Jeju Island is a volcanic island, dominated by Halla-san (Halla Mountain): a volcano 1,950 metres (6,400 ft) high and the highest mountain in South Korea. The island measures approximately 73 kilometres (45 mi) across, east to west, and 41 kilometres (25 mi) from north to south.
The island was created entirely from volcanic eruptions approximately 2 million years ago, during the time period extending from the Tertiary to the beginning of the Quaternary period, and consists chiefly of basalt and lava. The eruptions took place in the Cenozoic era. It has a humid subtropical climate, warmer than that of the rest of Korea, with four distinct weather seasons. Winters are cool and dry while summers are hot, humid, and sometimes rainy.
There is a crater lake which is the only crater lake in South Korea.

An area covering about 12% (224 square kilometres or 86 square miles) of Jeju is known as Gotjawal Forest. This area remained uncultivated until the 21st century, as its base of ʻAʻā lava made it difficult to develop for agriculture. Because this forest remained pristine for so long, it has a unique ecology. The forest is the main source of groundwater and thus the main water source for the half million people of the island, because rainwater penetrates directly into the aquifer through the cracks of the ʻAʻā lava under the forest. Gotjawal forest is considered an internationally important wetland under the Ramsar Convention by some researchers because it is the habitat of unique species of plants and is the main source of water for the residents, although to date it has not been declared a Ramsar site.
