Information:
Located about 12㎞ off the southwestern coast of Korea, Bogildo Island is accessible by ferry from both Wando-gun and Haenam-gun in Jeollanam-do Province.
The island features fishing villages, hiking trails, beaches, evergreen forests as well as several historic buildings and gardens.
Furthermore, nearby attractions include Nohwado Island, which is connected to Bogildo by bridge, and Suando Island.
Surrounded by blue sea, Bogildo is considered the gem of all islands in this area. Island History The first people to set foot on Bogildo Island are Confucian scholars during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910).
The relics of two such men, 17th century poet Yun Seon-do and politician Uam Song Si-yeol, still remain on the island.
Yun had been on his way to Jeju Island when he stopped on Bogildo, and was so taken aback by its beauty that he ended up living on the island.
He built and resided in the Buyongdong gardens, which have been well-preserved to this day.
Uam Song had also been on his way to Jeju Island, when the boat stopped on Bogildo.
Here, Uam Song carved a famous poem into a rock, which can still be seen today.
