This island is the location where many scenes of Winter Sonata were shot. A leisurely walk around the island will take approximately 1~2 hours. Many visitors opt for biking part way. Bicycles can be rented at the administrative office located near the center of the island. There is a small farm area on the island with many ostriches, which are free to roam the island on days when there aren't many visitors.
