| Introduction | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Jungdo Island is one of three islands formed as a result of the construction of the Uiam Dam. Just 1.5km from downtown Chuncheon, many residents use the island as an everyday getaway; students often enjoy class trips here. Relics from the Bronze and Iron Age were unearthed here, including a burial ground and living area. The island has a wide grass area, pedestrian and bike paths, and camping grounds. Bicycles and badminton equipment can also be rented. In warm weather months, one can enjoy water skiing and boating.
Many popular television dramas were filmed here including ‘Gyeoul Yeonga’ (Winter Sonata) and ‘Father and Son.’ Jungdo Island was also used as the backdrop for the movie ‘Wanee & June.’ Signs have been posted for fans to find where their favorite scenes were shot. |
