Jeju Island, Korea, was formed through volcanic activity from approximately 1.8 million to 1,000 years ago. The island was designated a Global Geopark in 2010 in recognition of its diverse geoheritage. As part of a special edition for the International Geological Congress 2024, this article shares the latest scholarship on Jeju’s volcanic geoheritage sites to enhance public understanding of the island’s geoheritage as earlier misconceptions continue to spread through books, websites, and information boards, etc. Despite long being interpreted as a typical shield volcano, for example, Mt. Hallasan has been recategorized as a polygenetic and composite volcano that formed through Strombolian eruptions, lava effusions, and magma intrusions from 200,000 to 17,000 years ago. Moreover, although once interpreted as a single scoria cone that formed a thousand years ago, Biyangdo Island (Biyangbong) formed through subaerial volcanic eruptions 26,000 years ago that produced both a scoria cone and a spatter cone. This research is presented with the latest research on other volcano-related Jeju Island Global Geopark geosites, including Suwolbong Tuff Cone and Seongsan Ilchulbong Tuff Ring. Alongside regular research and monitoring, public awareness is essential to ensure sustainable protection due to increasing rockfalls caused by rising sea levels at coastal geosites and climate change-exacerbated freeze-thaw weathering at inland sites on Mt. Hallasan.
