                 Each island in Korea, whether large or small, holds
                 a unique story—shaped by its environment, history,
                 culture, nature, and ecology. Here are the islands
                 selected as „Island of the Month” by the Korea Island
                 Development Institute and the Ministry of the Interior
                 and Safety.
