About Seorak Hang Lighthouse
The Seorak Hang lighthouse, built in 2011, is a red, cylindrical concrete tower standing 10 meters tall. Its focal height reaches 17 meters, providing a geographic range of 12.4 nautical miles. The light emits a single red flash every 4 seconds. This structure is located on the main breakwater of Seorak harbor, south of Daepo harbor in Gangwon State. The tower's design is octagonal and it is painted red. The site is accessible, but the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This lighthouse guides fishing vessels and other small craft into Seorak harbor, a key local port. A unique monument of a Korean ski jumper is affixed to the tower, adding a distinctive cultural landmark.
