Located to the southwest of the Korean Peninsula, the island of Jeju is Korea's largest tourist destination.

Unlike mainland Korea, which has a temperate climate, Jeju boasts a climate that is closer to subtropical. Hallasan Mountain, lying at the center of the island, is surrounded by 368 parasitic cones, known as "Oreum." Eleven beaches have been designated as tourist beaches, but including those that are not officially designated, the island features nearly thirty beaches in total. Famous beaches include Iho Tewoo Beach, Samyang Beach, Hyeopjae Beach, Geumneung Beach, and Gwakji Beach. Jeju's renowned Olle Trails, a system of hiking paths, span a total length of 425 kilometers and would take about fifteen days to complete in their entirety.

Today, the farm primarily raises cows and racehorses and produces high-quality organic milk and horses for racing to utilize the profits in various welfare projects. The farmland also presents an exotic scenery as the vast grasslands blend in with modern structures such as Ctesiphon, which symbolizes the history of the farm.
