AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Check out this excellent drone video of a stunning rock formation on the coast of South Korea. Known as Candlestick Rock (Chuam Chotdaebawi), it's located in the city of Donghae, a port city in the northeastern province of Gangwon. While the actual Candlestick Rock is just one among many unusual looking stones in these waters of the Sea of Japan (the body of water which separates the Korean Peninsula from the islands of Japan), you will have no trouble identifying it. This video was filmed with a DJI Mavic Pro 3 drone.

추암촛대바위에서 찍은 동영상입니다.

Chuam Chotdaebawi Rock in Donghae-si, Gangwon-do is one of Korea’s most famous tourist attractions. The beautifully formed rock towers high into the sky and resembles a candlestick, from which it gets its name. Chotdaebawi Rock and the nearby rock formations seem to change the shape they resemble along with the waves that crash against the rocks. The view of the sunrise from behind Chotdaebawi Rock is so popular that it attracts photographers and tourists nationwide.

* The Legend of Chotdaebawi Rock
Once upon a time, there was a man who lived in Chuam who had a concubine. His wife was jealous of the second wife and the conflict between the two women continually escalated. One day, god became enraged over their continual quarreling and threw lighting down from heaven, striking both women dead. The newly-made widower missed his wives so much that he remained frozen in his loneliness and eventually turned into a rock, which is now called Chotdaebawi Rock.
