Haenyeo refers to female divers who dive into the ocean water to gather various shellfish, abalone, oysters, seaweed, etc, without using any underwater diving equipment. When diving underwater, a haenyeo carries only a pair of goggles, a round ball-like tube to keep her balance, and a basket to put her collections in. Such women involved in the fishing industry are known to be scattered all around Jeju-do, Korea, Japan (called Ama), and Russia (called freediver).
If you visited Jeju Island, don't forget to come to this museum. It located on 26, Haenyeobangmulgwan-gil, Gujwa-eup, Jeju-si, Jeju-do. Go visit their website for more info: haenyeo.go.kr

Description
Haenyeo, Sea Women of Korea's Jeju Island Part I.
제주해녀 UNESCO 등재 기원 특집: 해녀, 그들의 이야기 1편
For hundreds of years, women in Korea's southernmost island of Jeju have made their living harvesting seafood by hand from the ocean floor.
They are known as haenyeo, female free-divers who submerge under deep sea without any breathing apparatus. You might picture extraordinary people with extra human powers... but they are not.
Always tired and breathless but embodying incredible mental and physical strength they are the sisters, mothers, and grandmothers of the people of Jeju Island.
We shed light on the Korean women divers of Jeju Island who have faced the tempestuous tides of history and struggle for economic survival for centuries.
I went to meet them... they say We go to the otherworld to earn money, and return to the earthly world to save our kids.
Jeju.
Lying 64 kilometers south of the Korean peninsula... the island of Jeju is one of Korea's most popular holiday spots... with its beautiful landscape and mild weather.
It's called the Land of Paradise, Hawaii of Korea... but among many things, Jeju has traditionally been referred to as Samdado... or land of three abundances: roaring winds, magnificent rocks and women.
Not just any woman. But, women who've been free-diving into the sea for centuries and generations to feed the children, to support the family... for survival.
On a sunny yet chilly morning in May... 72-year-old Lee Sung-mae and her village sisters... head out for their daily routine.
With their diving gear tucked beneath their arms, the elderly women chat as they make their way to a rocky beach on the western side of the island.
As they have for 60 years, they wipe their goggles with a fistful of mugwort and jump into the darkness of the deep sea.
Once you dive in the water, you bring back cash. Life was so hard that we couldn't live without harvesting underwater.
There was no other way to making a living. My mother was a haenyeo, my sister-in-law is a haenyeo and I also learned to dive here. From a very young age, we all learned to free-dive.
It's hard work but what can we do? I educated my children with the money earned from harvesting underwater. I sent my kids to college on the mainland doing this.
They are haenyeo... female divers of Jeju who take to the ocean as deep as 10, 20 meters... without any special diving or breathing equipment.
For centuries, they've braved the treacherous waters of the Korea Strait... using only flippers and goggles as they scour the sea bed for abalone, conch and octopus.
These women hold their breath for up to three minutes, withstand intense water pressure... the frigid water temperatures... struggling to improve their bounty in order to make ends meet.
The first historical references to the haenyeo can be traced back to the 17th century.
By the 17th century, men were going to sea to fish or work on warships and they never returned, so diving became exclusively women's work. Documents from the late 17th century show women gathering abalone as well as seaweed from the ocean floor.
No one knows for sure how the haenyeo became the primary breadwinners of their families... but in a country where Confucianism has left an indelible patriarchal mark everywhere, haenyo culture has long bucked conventional gender roles on the island.
When they are not in the ocean, they grow crops and harvest the land, do household work and take care of the children.
Seventy-two-year-old Lee is at a relative's house... after a five hour dive.
It's a day to perform ancestral rites... the women in the neighborhood get together to help out... as even after an exhausting day underwater, THIS too is the women's work.
Women have a lot of work to do in Jeju. We give birth to children, feed them, send them to school... We go harvesting underwater, farm when we're not in the ocean. Preparing for these ancestral rites is also our job.
Jeju women have always been strong and economically productive. When we first got married, my wife used to bring back up to 100 kilograms of abalone and conch. Sometimes I feel bad that men just stay at home when the women are in the icy water. But, it's always been that way here.
Traditionally a job handed down from mother to daughter, haenyeo life has been shunned in recent decades by nearly all the girls born in Jeju's seaside villages.
They tend to favor more comfortable lives in the island's two cities or on the mainland.
Diving in the sea is such a harsh, low-esteem job. Holding your breath, going underwater... it's strenuous. Why would the young ones want to take on this job?

As the average age of haenyeos grows and many already well in their 80s... that lineage is fading leaving many wondering just for how long this unique tradition can continue.

YOU CAN DIVE With the Women Sea Divers of JEJU ISLAND | Unique Experience only found on JEJU
In today’s episode, we are doing something that is COMPLETELY UNIQUE to Jeju Island. You just can’t find something like this anywhere else in the world.
Why?
BECAUSE NOWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD DO THEY HAVE HAENYEO LIKE THEY DO HERE.
Simple as that. :)
Haenyeo are the women sea divers of Jeju, and their history and cultural relevance is so important, UNESCO inscribed the haenyeo culture on the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
Out of a need to survive, Jeju women of the past were forced into the sea to hunt for food. As more and more women joined the community of sea divers, it grew into a culture of its own, creating a unique phenomenon to Jeju Island.
If you’re interested about the Haenyeo, or even if you just want a completely different and unique experience, make sure to check out the video! I’ll show you how you can dive with the famous haenyeos of Jeju!

Best place to see in Korea: Three Waterfalls and some Haenyeo | Jeju Island || South Korea
I'm so excited to share this episode with you! This is the first of two parts about Jeju island! This place is wonderful and I need to show you why!
We made it around jeju island using the busses, after reading various things online I was a little worried about it as most sources strongly recommended you hire a car. We found it super easy there were busses to everywhere we wanted to get to the only thing is they usually came every hour but we weren't in that much of a rush. It costs 1,200 - 1,700 won for a single journey on the standard busses but there are also certain routes which cost 3,000 won and they are the 'express' services so its all fairly affordable. All of the busses we went on had the english version of the stops come up on the screen so knowing where to get of was super easy.
Donneako valley we took the 181 from jeju bus station to seogwipo industrial science high school. This is the same bus you can get all the way to seogwipo but if you get off here there are so many busses to take you from Donneako valley to seogwipo, you can also get the 182 which is the reverse of the circular 181 route directly back to jeju city. This place was the highlight of my trip it was so beautiful and I strongly recommend you make the time if you're on Jeju island ... its also free btw!
Cheonjiyeon waterfall this has a small cost of 2,000 won but there is loads of stuff here to read about the various small things they have around here. Its fairly busy but totally worth checking out!
Jeongbang waterfall again has a small 2,000 won entry cost but this one is simply down to the beach with the waterfall. We went around sunset and I think thats probably the best time to go!
Seongsan park (2,000 won) this is all steps but is not too long you should be able to get up in 30 minutes or so the crater and the views here look so much better than they do in photos or videos! The haenyeo are also interesting to go and see they do shows at 1:30pm and 3pm every day which are actually just watching them do their job which is fairly interesting but don't expect a proper 'show' its more of a 'watch what we do' but in my opinion thats much cooler!
Anyway I hope you enjoyed the video, if so, subscribe and I'll see you in the next one!!! Thanks for watching!
