FOR BEGINNER HIGH STUDENTS
Jeju Island is one of the most beautiful islands in East Asia. It is an excellent place for active tourism. The island has no manufacturing industry - the local people’s living comes from tourism, agriculture, and fishing. Development of many places is strictly controlled as ecology is high priority. Tourists can enjoy water sports: scuba- diving, sea kayaking, windsurfing, and parasailing.
Questions for Discussion:
1. Have you been to Jeju Island? If yes, can you describe your experience there?
2. What do you think will happen to Jeju Island in case the government agrees to set up manufacturing there?
3. What do you think will happen if Jeju Island becomes more commercialized?
4. Do you know of any programs done by the government to protect Jeju Island?
5. Do you think promoting Jeju Island for tourism runs contrary to preserving it as a natural island?
6. What are other places in the world- or in Korea- that you can compare to Jeju Island?
7. Aside from the activities mentioned above, what else would you like to do if you get a chance to spend a week on the island?
