Darangshi Oreum (Wollangbong)

Darangshi Oreum is almost circular on the map, with a wide base and a large body; its four rounded slopes of lion-like form run around and form steep inclines in every direction. At the summit there is a large, deep, funnel-shaped circular crater hollowed out; this crater forms an oval elongated north-south, the northern side is relatively flat, and the depth of the crater is said to be exactly the same as that of Baengnokdam on Hallasan. Whereas most oreum have asymmetrical slopes, this is an uncommon form: a cone drawn neatly in with concentric contour lines. In its outstanding symmetry it clearly holds the position of queen in the Gujwa-eup area. The crater floor is thick with weeds, trees grow sparsely around the summit, cedar has been planted at the foot of each slope, and the grassland is inhabited by siho flowers, songjang flowers, island jeongda, and crayfish asters. It is said to be called Darangshi or Dallangshi because the crater of the peak looks round like the moon.
