It’s the filming location for a very famous Korean drama. We got a very knowledgeable volunteer guide who bought us around and explained to us the history of the area. Yes, I admit it is small and villages like this are dotted throughout Korea, but seeing as it is free, it’s worth a short trip to take in the sights. They also see some local products which the missus or the elderly may like.

To experience the folk culture of Jeju in South Korea, the best place to go is the Chenghuang Folk Village. Under the Halla Mountain, the village completely preserved the original appearance of the ancient village. In order to better preserve the tradition, there are now residents living here of course, they will also receive subsidies from the Korean government. Now this visit to the village has become one of the standard itineraries for Jeju Island tourism. In the early days, the aborigines of Jeju Island were relatively poor. The stone walls used by local villagers to block the wind were taken from the ground and built with black lava stones left after the volcanic eruption. The symbol of Jeju Island - the statue of the stone father-in-law is also everywhere here. I heard that it has also been the location of "Da Jang Geum".
