JEJU ISLAND - 섭지코지 Seopjikoji

Trust me, you won't regret if you come visiting Jeju Island. This island has a lot of beautiful places that you can enjoy exploring. I have visited some of the beautiful places in the last year but still I didn't get tired to re-explore it again. This time is my third time in Jeju.  

Well, the place that I visited today is Seopjikoji. It is located along the eastern borders of the country in Seogwipo City.  They said Seopjikoji derives its name from two local terms “Seopji”, which is the former name of the area; and “Koji”, which in the local language translates as ‘a sudden bump on land’.

Yes, life is not easy but it's beautiful :)

This is the video that I took on the way go to Seopjikoji

On the open fields, there is alone building which is a church

If you are a Korean drama fever, you must remember 
which drama this place was appeared. 
This church used for filming one of the famous Korean drama

Beautiful view of the blue ocean and rocky shore. 

If you see well this picture, you will find there is a Seondol rock or 
"sticking out" in English

According to legend of Seopjikoji, there was a nymph who used to bathe at Seojikoji. One day, the youngest son of the King of heaven saw the nymph and begged his father to arrange a marriage. The king promised him to do that if he waited for 100 days. But, the nymph didn't show up on the 100th day because of wild waves and gusts of wind. So, the King told his son that his dedication wasn't good enough to move heaven. In the end, the sorrowful son then became a rock, standing upright at Seopjikoji

The weather wasn't that kind. Because the day before it was raining, so it's so hot today. Guess what, I got really tan after exploring this place. Even though, I really enjoyed my last day in Jeju by visiting this place and others.
