According to a survey conducted by the Jeju Tourism Organization (JTO) on the weekends and holidays last month, Jeju black pork barbecue was named Jeju tourists’ favorite dish. The most impressive street is the Olle, and Olle walking was chosen to be the favorite activity.
The informal survey was conducted at Jeju International Airport, with more than 12,000 visitors placing stickers on a board to vote for their favorites. This event survey was a part of the JTO’s promotional campaign for Jeju to be selected one of the New7Wonders of Nature.
