O'Sulloc Tea Museum & Seogwang Tea Fields
Stand at the edge of an endless emerald carpet of tea bushes and feel the mist drifting down from Hallasan — this is the most photogenic 30 minutes you will spend in Andeok. The museum pairs a world-class collection of antique teaware with Korea's largest organic tea farm, all free to enter.
A Farm That Shouldn't Exist
When founder Sun Sung-Whan chose Jeju's rocky, barren Seogwang plateau for tea cultivation in 1979, critics called it folly. Decades of trial and error later, the Seogwang fields became the largest organic tea farm in Korea, producing 700 tonnes of tea annually.
Hallasan Mountain looms just behind the fields, generating the clouds and mist that shade the leaves and deepen their colour and flavour — nature doing the hard work so the tea doesn't have to.
Inside the Museum & Tea House
The two-storey museum blends East and West with a cup-art gallery, a tea-culture exhibition hall spanning Korean dynasties, and a rooftop observatory that frames the plantation in a perfect panorama.
Don't leave without ordering at the café: the green tea ice cream (around ₩5,200) and the green tea waffle ofredo are the two things every regular visitor comes back for. Exclusive Jeju-only products fill the gift shop — matcha powder makes a compact, lightweight souvenir.
Timing & Getting There
The museum is open daily 09:00–18:00 and admission to the museum and surrounding tea fields is free, though special guided tea tastings carry a fee. Arrive early on weekday mornings for the best light and smallest crowds.
From Jeju Airport the drive takes roughly 30 minutes; from Seogwipo about 20 minutes. Bus 151 from Jeju City Bus Terminal reaches the stop in approximately one hour.
