4. What are the tourist attractions in Jeju Island?

The symbol of Jeju Island is Grandpa Stone. You can see many stone statues in Jeju Island. These stone statues are called Lupine and Dolha, which we usually call Grandpa Stone. These stone statues were originally called Grandpa Stone, but before and after Korea was restored, the islanders began to call them Grandpa Stone because they were easy to call and remember, and then it spread.

The name Grandpa Stone was officially confirmed on August 26, 1971. After some discussion, the Jeju Province Cultural Heritage Committee decided to adopt Grandpa Stone as the official name of the cultural heritage. So, what's its name? Before Grandpa Stone? According to the research of historians, they are called Buxumori (its meaning is similar to a totem), Weng Zhongshi and Wang Zhushi.

In addition to the name, there are 49 authentic stone grandfathers left over from the past. It has been confirmed that 2 of them are in Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul and 47 in Jeju.

These stone grandpas were originally established in front of the county seats of Jeju Animal Husbandry, Daejing County, and Gyeongui County. As the three administrative centers of Jeju, Muji, Daegyeong, and Gyeonggui counties lasted for about 500 years (1416-1914). Grandpa Shi from three counties ago had a slightly different appearance. Jeju Animal Husbandry and Gyeongui County have such foundations, but Dae Gyeong County does not.

What is the purpose and significance of erecting these stone grandfathers? There is no record of this in historical documents. According to the interviews and survey results with Korean folklorists, it can be roughly summarized into two points:

1. The role of the patron saint: it has the functions of avoiding evil spirits, spreading evil diseases, and avoiding war disasters.

2. Indicative function: placed at the location of state and county governments, it not only shows the people but also highlights the dignity of the government.

Grandpa Stone has gradually become a spiritual symbol of Koreans. He is not only the mascot of Jeju Island, but also the image ambassador of South Korea. Grandpa Stone was presented to foreign heads of state as a national gift. Smart Koreans have long made Grandpa Stone a creative cultural industry. His image has become a god and ambassador for Jeju tourism, as well as thousands of his descendants. He has his own hall and private garden. In addition to the simulated version, there is also a cartoon image. It is made into travel souvenirs, stamps, bookmarks, mobile phone pendants and other small commodities, and is sold all over the world.
