About

A bizarre rock cliff towering alone on the coast of Seogwipo, Jeju, Oedolgae Sea Stack is a representative attraction of Jeju that boasts a lonely yet grand charm, just like its name. Reaching a height of 20m and a circumference of 10m, this rock was formed when lava from a volcanic eruption was carved by waves to take on its current shape. It holds the poignant legend of a grandmother who turned to stone while waiting for her grandfather who went out to sea, and is also known as a filming location for the popular drama 'Jewel in the Palace', constantly drawing both domestic and international travelers.

The beautiful coastal walking path, Jeju Olle Route 7, connects nearby, making it a perfect place to spend a leisurely time while appreciating the spectacular view of the blue sea and bizarre rocks.
