Gapseoni Oreum

Gapseoni Oreum, located in Gasi-ri, Pyoseon-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do, has a horseshoe-shaped beak that spreads out to the southwest. Gasitnae passes by to the west of the oreum, and Gasiri is nestled comfortably to the west. There is Seol Oreum to the northwest and Gasi Oreum to the south. Gapseoni of Gapseoni Oreum appears to be Jeju’s native word, but its meaning is unclear. Using Chinese characters, it was written as Gapseonak (甲先嶽), Gapseonak (甲蟬嶽), and Gapseonak (甲旋嶽). Some say that the name comes from the fact that it looks like a slug or cicada that has not shed its skin, placing importance on the Chinese character borrowed notation Gapseon-ak (甲蟬嶽). The area around Gapseoni Oreum is mainly used for cemeteries, orchards, and agricultural land, and the Gamacheon Stream between the village and the Oreum leads to Sehwari Beach. In addition, cedar trees are planted at the foot of the cone, while each slope of the cone has a dense mixed forest of evergreen and deciduous trees.
