Loveland 러브랜드
There are some museums for adults in Jeju city. What I'm going to introduce among those museums is Jeju Loveland. It's located near Jeju city.
It's 7.7km away from Jeju international airport and it costs around 8,000won by taxi.

The ticket price is 9,000won. You might think that it's a bit expensive but I think it's not bad to experience once like this where the content of the museum is for adults only.
In the museum, there are various sculptures exhibited outside. If you visit at night, they have various lights with sculptures.

You might feel a bit embarrassed because of the sculptures since its contents are for adults.
There are also some sculptures expressed in a humorous way.

It's good for couples to enjoy together.

Youngduam is originally name of the rock you see in the picture. When I visited, the wave was too high.

When the wave is not too high, you can go down to the rock and see around.

Foods and etc.
Jeju city has a five-day market which holds every 5th of the month.
They call it "Jeju Minson O-il Sijang (Jeju folk five-day market-제주민속오일시장)." A five-day market is located between Jeju city and Jeju international airport and it's near Dodu fishing port and Iho-tewoo beach.
It's very traffic when the five-day market is held so you better check if a five-day market will be held or not before you visit Jeju city.

Market is like a big conventional market. They sell variety of vegetables, fruits, fishes, meats, souvenirs, daily goods, tools, and even animals like dogs, cats, and rabbits.

I wanted to buy one, but it was ambiguous to buy knife.
Moreover, many stores tempt me with delicious foods.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/2.1 | iso 200 | 2013:06:07 12:15:17 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 10.7mm
It's Ddeokbokgi. They put thick rice cakes, odeng(fish cake), boiled egg, and fried dimsum. It's 3,000won and the taste is just like any other Ddeokbokgi you can taste in the market.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/2.2 | iso 200 | 2013:06:07 12:15:09 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 14.1mm
But it was famous so there were lots of people.

I found a restaurant that sells horse raw meat, but I didn't try. I just went to eat Sundaeguk as I heard that Sundaeguk is delicious in this market.
Actually, many people think of fresh seafood and cross-bred black pig in Jeju, but Jeju is very famous for Sundae, too. I personally think Anseong restaurant's Sundaeguk is the best in Jeju.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/1.8 | iso 320 | 2013:06:07 11:35:09 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 6mm
Sundaeguk in the market was 5,000won.
When you go inside Jeju city, there is Dongmun market which is a permanently established
market. The best Sundaeguk restaurant I said above is located in Dongmun market.
Anseong restaurant(안성식당) is famous among those who love Sundaeguk in Jeju.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/2.0 | iso 200 | 2013:06:05 18:04:53 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 8.1mm
Sundaeguk is 5,000won (for one person) and it's not too expensive.

Jeju's Sundaeguk is not different in terms of ingredients with other Sundaeguk, but Sundae and meats in the soup are very delicious. It's very chewy and is filled with plenty ingredients that make me satisfied.
I unwillingly introduced foods far from seafood.
Next restaurant I will introduce is Gapum(가품) which is known for Yukgaejang(육개장).
It's located between Jeju international airport and Hanla arboretum. You can eat variety of Yukgaejang here.
Generally, when you think of Yukgaejang, it's made up with red soup with chicken or beef in it, but Jeju has its own Yukgaejang.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/1.8 | iso 100 | 2013:06:06 09:13:37 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 6mm
Like in the picture, its soup has a color of brown. Its soup is made up of Gosari, chicken, soybean paste, and buck wheat powder. In Gapum, there are eggs ready on the table so depending on your preference, you may put eggs in the soup. The price is depending on what Yukgaejang, but it's from 6,000won to 8,000won.

It's very delicious and at the same time, it's something that you cannot eat in Seoul.
The next restaurant I'm going to introduce is Tomo where you can enjoy brunch and pasta.
This place is actually not matching with Jeju food, but this is near to Jeju golf hotel which I stayed for a while in Jeju and its foods are delicious, too.

It looked like a normal tonkatsu, but its sauce made by the chef was incredible and salad was also good.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/2.3 | iso 500 | 2013:06:06 13:04:51 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 18.2mm
Well baked meat with crispy batter and tonkatsu sauce were really delicious and it was one of the best tonkatsu I have eaten.

Next was pizza. It's called white pizza. It's consist of crispy dough, cheese, and tomato sauce. Its ingredients were just basic but its taste was good.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/2.3 | iso 250 | 2013:06:06 13:00:12 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 18.2mm
Its size was just for one person in normal pasta restaurants. It's good for one person and if you are with your family or girlfriend or boyfriend, I suggest you order 2-3 foods more.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/1.8 | iso 640 | 2013:06:05 21:28:55 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 6mm
I ordered Patbingsu after eating. It's a simple bingsu with milk ice, red bean, and rice cake.
PENTAX MX-1 | f/2.4 | iso 800 | 2013:06:05 21:29:22 | Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode | 19.9mm
It was cool and when I did not mix red bean with milk ice, I could taste its real taste. The bowl and spoon maximized its coolness, too.
Next I will introduce is Sammuguksu(삼무국수) which is famous for Gogiguksu(meat noodle) and Hwiguksu(sashimi noodle).
Sammuguksu is located in the vicinity of Sammu park near Jeju international airport.
The main menu for this restaurant is Gogiguksu with thick meat and Hwiguksu. You can commonly see these two dishes in other restaurants in Jeju, but I personally like them here.
PENTAX Q10 | f/3.2 | iso 200 | 2013:01:26 12:28:35 | Flash did not fire. | 7.1mm
It's Gogiguksu. Its soup is made up of pork and is really delicious.
PENTAX Q10 | f/4.5 | iso 500 | 2013:01:26 12:33:18 | Flash did not fire. | 6.5mm
Just like in the picture, you put some noodles and meat in the plate and taste them at once. You'll surely like it.
PENTAX Q10 | f/2.8 | iso 250 | 2013:01:26 12:27:34 | Flash did not fire. | 5mm
Next is Hwi bibimguksu. It looks like it has same ingredients with Jjolmyen.
PENTAX Q10 | f/4.5 | iso 500 | 2013:01:26 12:30:45 | Flash did not fire. | 5mm
The noodles were chewy and the sauce was not that spicy. Its combination with sashimi was fresh and delicious.
Gogiguksu is 6,000won and Hwi bibimguksu is 9,000won. If it's not enough, you can add more noodles for free.
