D-War (Jeju in the movies)






So on Friday I went to see the Korean-American movie called Dragon Wars, or D-War (디워) for short. It is based on a Korean myth about an Imoogi or giant evil snake that can turn into a dragon if it eats the chosen girl who has a dragon mark on her shoulder. So the Korean myths were fascinating but there was a bit too much high-tech monster fighting scenes for my taste. However, it showcased Korean scenery and had spectacular aerial shots of Jeju island. So it was awesome to see the spots where I had been on vacation in the movies! The giant snake first appears from Jongbang waterfall, which is surrounded by high rocks and pours out directly into the sea. So here are some more of my pictures of it...(unfortunately I didn't see the dragon.)
