This week on Jeju: A to Z, Todd Thacker takes a brief look at Korea’s largest resort-style convention center. Located in the Jungmun Tourist Complex, the International Convention Center Jeju is a venue for many of the island’s largest domestic and international conferences.

One of the most interesting architectural landmarks on Jeju’s south coast is hard to miss. This seven-story oval-shaped international convention center is designed with a Jeju aesthetic and is a major area landmark built mainly of glass and steel.

The ICC Jeju is about 45-minutes from Jeju International Airport. It opened in 2003 and is the site of dozens of large- and small-scale conferences, both domestic and international.

The site boasts magnificent views of the South Sea and to the north, Hallasan Mountain. Inside is 54,000 square-meters of space with six large-scale halls, banquet rooms and ballrooms, a huge lobby, and a dozen smaller meeting rooms.

The building’s centerpiece, though, is the 4,300-seat Tamna Hall, which was used prominently during the 2012 World Conservation Congress, a 10-day event which had 10,000 attendees.

Organizations who wish to hold their event at ICC Jeju can also have access to a number of support services and facilities, including a business center, island tours, catering, and more.

If you’re just passing through and want to see the building for yourself, it is open to the public, and there are a number of restaurants, a convenience store, and a duty-free shop. Behind the center is a pleasant seaside park and Jeju Olle walking trail No. 8.

Jungmun Saekdal Beach, Yeomiji Botanical Garden and the Museum of African Art, among other sites, are also in the area, so the ICC can be a memorable destination for convention goers and visitors alike.
