Several decades ago, a famous Japanese writer visited and traveled through Jeju Island. Upon returning home to Japan, he remarked, "It's as if I went to the place where I used to live my 'previous life (前生)' and now I have returned to my present life."

7:44 That car! It is a vehicle experiencing mystery roads... You can check it effectively only with a vehicle, and you must go in neutral gear.

[@flyingducktv]

i think u guys interesting about Manjangul Lava Tube in jeju. that's Unesco world natural heritages. it's not limestone cave, the volcano made it. the biggest lava cave in the world. i was very impressed so i recommend to u guys. u can see lava flow streams, feels like u in the volcano. anyway it's cool temperature good at summer. 😀👍👍👍👍

진짜 제주의 아름다움은 관광지에 없습니다. 성산 정도? 제주의 북동쪽 해변을 가세요. 서남쪽은 깊고 웅장하지요. 북동쪽 함덕, 김녕, 월정리 같은곳이요. 훨씬 낮고 푸른바다를 볼수있어요. 그리고 제주 오일장, 세화 오일장, 올레 고기국수 같은 현지인들이 먹는 곳을 방문해보세요. 관광객들이 가는곳이나 관광지는 (박물관 등등) 가지마세요. 호텔보다는 제주오래된 돌집에서 자는걸 추천합니다~

I'm adopted from Jeju-do and want to visit at least once in my lifetime. it looks beautiful!

[@LisaAndJosh]

It really is!

[@ayden9707]

I'm enjoying the travel video. Jeju has low hills called "Oreum" ("Saebit Oreum" is the most famous. On Jeju Island, the Oreum tour is the best way to feel the nature of Jeju Island.) and forests over a thousand years old called "Bijarim." Try traveling there next time. And the highlight of the Jeju trip is climbing Mt. Halla. It takes 10 hours to get back and forth, but it's worth it.

[@LisaAndJosh]

Wow! oreum looks incredible. Never saw anything like that before

[@abcd-xr1fh]

obviously she did no real research and expected jeju to spill out its goodness as soon as she left arrivals at the airport.

Hey love the videos. Very nice weather too. Which month did you visited last South Korea?

the weather was wonderful! we first got to Korea in May

[@minja38]

Try a little heavier object such as a glass bottle to test the mysterious road :D The park looks amazing, and I would love to go there, too!

[@LisaAndJosh]

Thanks for the idea, wish we had tried that! (or not eaten all the chips 😂) such a beautiful park!

downtowner burger is my favourite restaurant. knotted that was shown in your video is also created by the same company. there are the top restauranteurs in korea right now!

[@LisaAndJosh]

Thank you! We had such a wonderful time on Jeju-you have a beautiful home!

[@hchunesq]

Renting a car in Jeju-do is outrageously expensive these days, even compared to last year. There are people who bring their cars to the island by a ship when they will stay there for at least a week. By the way, the empty can was too light for the experiment at the "mysterious road,", and you could have used a bottle filled with water. If you put the transmission of your car in neutral at the spot, the car apparently climbs the sloping road. Some people claim that this is merely an illusion.

[@LisaAndJosh]

we can imagine! we were pretty surprised that we were even able to rent a car so last minute--we were able to get the car from Lotte for $60/day for 2 days only, but the hotel and many other places were quoting $100+/day. we definitely should've tried a water bottle--that would've been smarter :)

[@arielzshell]

Wow you already have sponsorship so happy for you

[@LisaAndJosh]

thank you!

[@StaceyPetersdbspouse]

Sunset is the wrong time, the morning hike is awesome. Its a good intro hike in Korea. Unfortunately you didn't do the right things, it's still beautiful.

[@sonyayun9748]

This video gave me the lesson and reminded me again that I have to research a destination or city's history, culture, places-to-go and etc properly in advance on my own if my trip is not guided tour but self-driving tour, e.g, in order not to leave a review that this book is underwhelming, and not to say that it is my honest and overall opinion on this book judging a book by its cover. And, have to try to look at and enjoy differences, similarities and etc between mine and theirs as they are with positive perspective and reflect them, in order to expand my insights and my experience.

[@Jennylove7]

anyone coming to jeju, i'd reccomend going to manjanggul, pyoseon folk village and sunrise peak on the eastern side, oedolgae and jeongbang waterfall in the south, the teddy bear museum, camellia hill, the ma park horse show, and hallim park on the western side, and in the north, the jeju five day market, rainbow road along the coast, and the beaches up there like iho, etc. most of the places here are for photo ops, but if you really REALLY want nature, I would say do an olle trail. olle 7 and 14-1 are really fun and nice. if you do 14-1, there is a chance to see wild horses and it ends at the green tea museum so you can get that done in one go haha. Oh and Udo is nice also! small mini island that you can rent a bike and go around. much less crowded beaches

[@LisaAndJosh]

Great recommendations!!

[@skqq3250]

This place is on my bucket list. I love the bit about the crinkle cut french fries. Very cute. Never heard anyone talk about crinkle cut french fries. perhaps I have to have another look at them again. Also your voice/accent is so crystal clear. Great English indeed.

[@LisaAndJosh]

Hey there! Such a bucket list place - truly amazing. We definitely recommend trying the crinkle cut fries if you get a chance - they're one of our favorites! And thank you for your kind words about our English - we appreciate it, especially with sometimes-overwhelming Wisconsin accent lol. Safe travels!

[@HereToCheers]

You guys find some of the best places, hte bucket list gets longer with ever video lol

[@LisaAndJosh]

haha we feel the same every time we read comments of people sharing their recs and favorite places to go :) so much of this world to see ☺️ hope you get to visit soon!

[@PourMoiForMe]

awesome vlog! Can you share more of your experience renting the car, the process/preparation you made prior to getting the car, cost per day, was it difficult driving in jeju, your overall rating etc. would love to know more! Thanks :)

[@LisaAndJosh]

Yes, of course! we rented the car with Lotte. we have heard it is usually a lot easier to rent online, but we had to call to book a reservation since we did it pretty last minute (they do have some English speaking staff on certain days as well.) it was pretty reasonable, about $50-60/day, but have heard it can be a lot cheaper if reserved earlier. Took a taxi to the airport to pick it up, needed an international driver license, insurance, etc. overall it was a great experience, the driving on Jeju was pretty straightforward and laidback!

[@lancecorporal7605]

the nice beaches are in the north-east -> Hamdok, Kim-nyong nice road -> 5.16 Forest tunnel big hotels and golf clubs -> Jungmun on the southern coast -> west of Sogwipo the green tea in Jeju are not that expensive cause not as good? (the best green teas in Korea are in Hadong, then Boseong, then Jeju. Hadong and Boseong green teas are hand picked and hand processed, Jeju -> mechanized processing) The interior roads in Jeju are really beautiful - especially those that pass through horse ranches...

[@LisaAndJosh]

thanks for these recommendations!!

[@LisaAndJosh]

We unfortunately didn’t have time to see the “show,” but saw some of them at the end of the day at Seongsan. There’s also a whole museum dedicated to their history that might be worth your time :)

[@Nuzen]

The north side of the island near Jeju City/airport is incredibly underwhelming. The south, southeast, and east are less touristy and more beautiful. Seogwipo is the city to be at. The Dragonhead Trail (or YongMeori) is probably the most stunning trail by the ocean.

[@monero892]

I preferred the north east and Udo island side. The south side for me was underwhelming and the beaches not as beautiful, particularly the famous beach of Jungmun. There are lots of nicer beaches away from the touristy areas , especially if you have a car

[@LisaAndJosh]

I think if we had the car a bit longer, we definitely would have explored the southern and eastern sides more :)

[@monero892]

With a car I would have avoided the touristy places which is why you might have been underwhelmed. Surprised that the car rental was only $56, it’s usually double that these days and more. Udo island is great if you’re strapped for time, Like a mini Jeju in itself.

[@LisaAndJosh]

what places would you recommend we visit next time? we were quite surprised as well, especially since we rented it so last minute. the hotels and other sites quoted about $100/day, but we were able to rent it through Lotte for 142,400 KRW for 2 days. wish we had longer to see more of Jeju and Udo!

Hi Lisa and Josh, im going to Jeju next year end of April. Would you mind to share me the car rental name or perhaps website?

[@LisaAndJosh]

We used Lotte car rental :)

[@BegaW]

There are places called oreum(side or parasitic volcano) along the Halla Mt. and you can hike there and could truly feel the well reserved nature. I felt quite stunned as if I'm at another dimension when I hiked up. You may even find the small lakes in the middle of oreums. It's kind of hidden though. 😆😍 btw, It's very cute for you guys to try the special outfits.👍 Hope you guys had a great time in Jeju island.

[@LisaAndJosh]

thank you for these tips!! we only made it 2/3 up Mt Hallasan, wish we had more time to see it all

[@lyn9843]

Quick question, for the road signs(if you saw any) were they in korean only or in English and Korean?

[@LisaAndJosh]

We saw a bit of both :)

[@speakupyt4900]

When traveling around the world~ Jeju Island may not be like Hawaii where you came from, Jeju Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Coming to Korea's most popular tourist destination and arguing for a long-standing reputation for not living up to your expectations It's disrespectful to Korea and Korean people. Oh!~ one thing for sure Jeju isn't hawaii because Jeju doesn't have a 'Homeless Problem' like Hawaii lol --Oahu resident *Your Jeju vlog literally started with this remark -->>> ''Jeju is not hawaii'' "it's called the 'Hawaii of Korea' we know these ' kind of comparisons can usually be unhelpful.

[@LisaAndJosh]

perhaps the message didn't come across too clearly, but we definitely weren't offended by the comparison. having come from Hawai'i, the nickname was the reason we actually wanted to visit Jeju! but now having visited, we almost feel like the comparison doesn't need to exist at all because Jeju is beautiful in its own right

[@user-sl309jd90]

it's very common for Western expats or tourists to be disappointed in Jeju. Because think about the whole continents in Europe and all around America and Australia with the vast nature and sightseeing. What they misunderstand is that the Korean peninsula is a very tiny place. For South Koreans the Jeju island is the most warm Southern place with the most nature features like the Volcanic rocks and beaches. It doesn't mean that it is a remarkably surprising place for foreign tourists. It wasn't meant to be for foreigners in the first place. Still, for Koreans, it's the most beautiful and soothing place where people from busy metropolitan areas could ever dream of living there. You could think of it more of as an alternative of Seoul, then you might understand the hype better.

[@LisaAndJosh]

thanks for this very helpful context! Jeju feels so different than the rest of the mainland and we appreciated that. I think once we dropped our expectations of those comparing it to places we are familiar with and got to know Jeju, its history, and spent time in the nature places, we loved the island.

[@SeoWoojin55]

The mainland definitely isnt the smallest, as the Korean Peninsula is almost the same size as the British Isles, but Jeju, compared to the mainland, is really small. The charm of Jeju is how different it is to the mainland, geography and culture wise.

[@flyingducktv]

07:57 it's too light. need more weight. the water bottle or cola can (new) will works. 😭😭😆😆😆

[@LisaAndJosh]

ahhh we shouldn't have eaten all the chips!!! 😂

[@NomadLifeKiwi]

Thanks for the honest review of this island. We are planning to cycle South Korea next year and a few people have said we must go to Jeju island, but it looks a little bit too built up and touristy for our liking.

[@Arthur-le8ec]

My wife and I are planning to visit Jeju Island this Spring. I’ve done a lot of research before watching this video. I wanted to see if there was anything I’ve missed. The truth is this video I’m afraid didn’t do Jeju any justice. The notion of trying to cover Jeju in two days is flawed from the beginning. In short, Josh and Lisa misrepresented the island in many ways with their backhanded comments and offish attitude in their surface level coverage of the island. There are a lot of other well researched and more honest videos out there that can give you an accurate representation of the island and set your expectations right.

[@Arthur-le8ec]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKTdeXmNd9aKaa8si=EA80f0IqkVwxuJTT This is a video I found for Korean viewers highlighting 60 must visit places. Unfortunately the video is only in Korean but you can kinda skip through the video and get an idea of where else you could be visiting and be doing than what this couple tried to do.

[@russellpark9656]

Whenever you are in Korea, you must visit the temples. They are amazing! Can't miss out on that. If you can eat lunch at the temple, do it. Temple food is very special as they usually grow everything in the mountains, but go to a Jogye Order temple as they are more traditional. Naksan Temple is one of the best (temple by the sea), as well as Bulguksa, Seokguram, and Tongdosa. You really experience the culture there. While you are there, don't forget to get the cold noodles! Myeongdong Kyoja in Seoul is the best, hands down - MUST GO noodles and dumplings! Jeju has a great temple too. Also the smaller islands off the island are nice to ride ATV's around. Korean seafood is good to eat there. The haenyeo ladies have the best seafood but it's expensive because it's fresh caught from the sea. Best sea cucumbers (if you can handle that) and abalone. I would Google popular seafood places on Jeju because the best are the Korean seafood dishes. Get some marinated blue crab anywhere near the water in Korea, it's amazing! Jeju Folk Village is nice too Jusangjeolli Cliff. I think they have swimming and kayaking there. Snorkeling is great too www.expatolife.com/things-to-do-in-jeju-island-south-korea/
