Why go

Jeju Deulbul Festival is an annual fire festival held on the grasslands of Jeju Island, rooted in a traditional farming practice of burning fields to eliminate pests and encourage fresh growth. Centered on Saeyeong-yo Park near Biyangdo, the event draws visitors with large-scale controlled burns set against the backdrop of Jeju's volcanic landscape. Beyond the signature hillside ignition, the festival program typically includes fireworks displays, traditional folk performances, and hands-on cultural activities. The spectacle of flames sweeping across the dark hillside at night is the defining visual experience, making it one of Jeju's most distinctive seasonal events.
