    Mysterious Road aka Goblin Road

    In 1984, a honeymooning couple were shocked to see an idle car rolling on its own on a road that went uphill. And so the mystery began. Since then, thousands have flocked to this mysterious road that seemingly defied gravity. Mysterious Road, or Goblin Road, as it is sometimes called, is a 100 meter long stretch of road that seemingly slopes upward. Once you reach the marker that signals the start of the road, you can put your car into neutral and watch your car roll along on a road that looks like it’s going up. In reality, the slope is an optical illusion, and the road actually has a downward slope of 3 degrees. It’s still a lot of fun to try, and it’s become one of the most popular destinations on a Jeju vacation!

    Jeju Seomun Traditional Market

    The Seomun Market first opened its doors in 1954, and proved to be a very popular market, due to large government buildings, schools, and a bus terminal that was nearby. However, in the name of modernization, in the 1980s, all these buildings were abandoned and moved to a new location, which severely affected the business at Seomun Market. Then, to add more to the injury, a new underground shopping mall and a mega-supermarket were built nearby. Suffering from the loss of business, the remaining business owners rallied together and were able to receive subsidies from the government to keep the traditional market active and open. It was renovated and reconstructed and newly opened its doors on September 26, 2013. It has since then become one of the 3 most popular traditional markets in Jeju City, along with the 5-Day Market and Dongmun Market. You will find at Jeju Seomun Market, all the fresh produce, seafood, and traditional goods you have come to expect from a Jeju traditional market. The Seomun Market is best known for its numerous butcher shops that provide some of the the freshest meat you will find on the island. While they are most known for Jeju’s famous black pig pork, you can also find a variety of other meat portions.
