Explanation
Samseonam Rocks is comprised of three rock pillars off the northern coast of beautiful Ulleungdo Island. The sea stacks were formed by waves breaking down a block of columner joints over time, leaving the three remaing stacks behind. The sides of the stacks are dotted with many holes, resembling honeycomb. The rocks name, meaning "Three Hevenly Maiden Rocks," comes from a myth that three heavenly maidens were so enraptured by the beauty of Ulleungdo that they missed their curfew to return to heaven and were thereby punished by being turned to stone.
