Two islands are bridged by a strip of white sand, resembling an hourglass. The emerald-green sea and a white beach provide a tranquil ambience.

[Soundbite] Park Chan-ha(Tourist) : "I came to an uncrowded place with my friends to be healed. Bijindo Island is awesome."

A suspension bridge built last year connects two locations on Yeondaedo Island. Walking above the sea with refreshing sea breezes blowing on the face makes visitors feel as if they're in heaven.

[Soundbite] Park Bo-gyeong(Tourist) : "I feel healed since the water is clear and air is fresh. There are not that many people, so I can relax in tranquility."

Sea fog envelopes an island, giving it an illusion of floating above the clouds. This is Yeonhwado Island. When seen from high up, the island is shaped like a dragon head diving into the sea. The Hallyeohaesang National Park features 570 islands in Korea's southern seas. Island residents living a simple, natural life and the heavenly natural sceneries tempt summer vacationers to come to these islands.
