Choi Chi-won Statue and Octagonal Pavilion
Perched at the highest point of Dongbaekseom island, the statue of Choi Chi-won stands alongside a striking two-storey octagonal pavilion featuring traditional Korean architectural design. This centrepiece of Dongbaek Park honours the Silla kingdom scholar whose historical connection to the location lent its name to the entire Haeundae coastal district. What to see here includes both the statue and the distinctive pavilion, which command sweeping views across the area and serve as the focal point for visitors exploring this historic site in Busan.
Mermaid Statue / Princess Hwangok

Positioned right against the sea, this peculiar sculpture ranks among the island's most notable attractions. It makes for an arresting stop on the walking trails that crisscross Dongbaekseom, offering visitors a curious blend of mythology and coastal scenery to visit whilst exploring the island.
