Dokkaebi Road (Mysterious Road) (도깨비 도로(신비의 도로))

Dokkaebi Road is an amusing road that is also called the Jeju Mysterious Road. It earned its name due to the sensation it gives to the drivers when driving down this steep road. When driving this road, the driver and their passengers will feel like as if the car is moving upward instead of moving down the slope. This is actually an optical illusion, in which the surroundings trick the eye and make the road look like it is tilted in the opposite direction.

This phenomenon, however, made Dokkaebi Road a popular tourist site. Various safety facilities are being added to prevent accidents from occurring, and a tourist park is expected to be built along the road in the near future. Drivers are advised to be careful and always look both ways when driving down Dokkaebi Road.
