Dark Tourism: Painful memories of Jeju Island - Korean Independence (Aug. 15) and the Jeju Hangil Anti-Japanese Movement

The emerald sea and vast expanses of pasture, the fields of fragrant springtime canola flowers, and the windy island paths marked by basalt stone walls. This is undoubtedly Jeju scenery, and peaceful scenery at that. However, during the Japanese Occupation of Korea from 1910 to 1945, Jeju was used as a strategic outpost due to its proximity to Japan. Particularly at the end of World War 2, Jeju became an area where Japanese forces prepared to make a last stand, resulting in the island being caught up in the final frenzy of the war. This year marks the 72nd anniversary of the end of World War 2, and so in remembrance, here are a few of the wartime occupation sites that you can view for yourself and learn more about this tragic event in Jeju’s history.

Remnants of Jeju’s tragic history: The Japanese colonial period

As with many parts of Korea and the region in general, Jeju Island has experienced a significant amount of strife over the centuries. The Japanese occupation (dating roughly from 1910 to 1945) is one such event which has left lasting scars on the island and it’s people. But we shouldn’t look away...

What should we do during Golden Week?

The so-called “Golden Week” of 2017 has finally arrived. If you are planning a trip to Jeju during this time, you can enjoy the beautiful autumn weather. Many shops and restaurants will be closed as Jeju Islanders take time to visit their families during this celebration, but that doesn’t mean everything stops!
