About location

The landscape around Bukdo-myeon is low-lying and maritime, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. This township of Ongjin County lies among the Yellow Sea islands west of Incheon, with Sindo, Sido, Modo and Jangbongdo forming its principal inhabited landmasses. Sindo, Sido and Modo are joined by local bridges, and a narrow channel separates Sindo from Yeongjong Island, home to Incheon International Airport. Their shores are shaped by the substantial tidal range of Korea’s west coast. On Modo, Baemikkumi Sculpture Park places large outdoor works within an island setting, adding a cultural stop to this scattered coastal community.

South Korea stretches from the mountainous border with North Korea to Jeju Island, encompassing forested ranges, fertile river basins and a deeply indented southern coast. The Taebaek Mountains run along much of the east, while the Han River crosses Seoul before reaching the Yellow Sea. Busan faces the Korea Strait, and tidal flats and islands shape the country’s western shore. Seoul combines dense contemporary districts with royal Joseon sites, including Gyeongbokgung Palace, first built in 1395. Kimchi and bibimbap are central to everyday cuisine, while the Korean alphabet, Hangeul, was created in the 15th century.
