JEJU ISLAND, SOUTH KOREA September 2009/ Yongduam Rock, The Legend Film Location, Seongsan Ilchulbong, Seongeup Folk Village, Cheonjeyeon Falls


Dol Hareubangs outside Jeju International Airport, South Korea
Dol Hareubangs are porous volcanic rock statues found in Jeju Island, South Korea.  They are considered Gods often placed at the entrance for protection against demons.  They are also common symbol of  fertility in Jeju.  I was told of a tradition that if you want to have a baby boy, rub the nose of the Dol Hareubang.
