  • Jeju's Jungmun Tourist Complex has launched two new indoor attractions: 'Break2: K-Island Jeju' and 'School Ghost Story in Jeju'.
  • 'K-Island Jeju' is a media art and object exhibition space themed around Jeju's nature and culture, offering photo opportunities.
  • 'School Ghost Story in Jeju' provides an extreme horror experience in a former school setting, contrasting with the more relaxed atmosphere of 'K-Island Jeju'.

Jeju Island is offering visitors new indoor entertainment options with the recent launch of two distinct attractions within the Jungmun Tourist Complex. Creative Tongjeju announced on the 11th that they have renovated key facilities, unveiling 'Break2: K-Island Jeju' and 'School Ghost Story in Jeju' on May 29th.

'K-Island Jeju' reimagines the former 'Museum is Alive' space, which previously focused on optical illusions. The new exhibition centers on Jeju's natural environment and cultural heritage, presented through media art and object displays. Visitors can explore themed areas dedicated to tangerines, stones, forests, seas, and wind, promising a unique and enjoyable experience. The space is designed with numerous photo zones, enhanced by attractive lighting and media art, perfect for capturing memorable moments.

In stark contrast to the serene beauty of 'K-Island Jeju,' 'School Ghost Story in Jeju' offers a heart-pounding indoor extreme horror experience. This attraction is set within a former school, aiming to create an immersive and suspenseful environment that replicates the feeling of being inside an actual abandoned school. The intense atmosphere is designed to thrill visitors seeking a more adrenaline-fueled activity.

The introduction of these new indoor attractions comes at a time when interest in such content is reportedly growing within the Jeju tourism market. The dual offerings cater to a wider range of preferences, from those seeking artistic and cultural engagement with Jeju's themes to those craving a more intense, fear-inducing adventure.
