Squid Island

When I was in Ulleungdo a couple of weeks ago, one of the first things that was readily apparent was how much they love squid there. Apparently the waters around the island are infested with the disgusting little creatures, and so Ulleungdo supplies a large portion of the squid consumed throughout the mainland.
All along the waterfront and on tops of many homes and buildings were racks of squid drying in the sun.

They even have a squid mascot, Oggidongyi, who you can see plastered everywhere. Here he is half way up the mountain guiding lost tourists.

Apparently he can even change colour.

And here he is with his best friend, Haehorang, a talking pumpkin. Ulleungdo is also famous for its pumpkin, and one of their most popular non-squid products is pumpkin taffy.
