Why dive here
With 113+ marine species recorded in the area - including great white sharks, hammerhead sharks, mobula rays (devil rays), octopuses and sea turtles - JANG YUNG NO.2 offers some of Jeju Island's richest wreck diving.
The Jang Yung No.2 holds a special place for us on Jeju, a real standout despite the island's often challenging conditions. This 48-meter motor vessel, wrecked on rocks back in '86, lies at 46 meters, making it a dive for experienced deep wreck enthusiasts. Drop down, and the stern rises first, often shrouded in a green haze of plankton, giving it a ghost-like presence. We love the way the ship has settled, split open in places, inviting you to peek inside the cargo holds where light filters down, illuminating schools of tiny sweepers. The deckhouse, surprisingly intact, offers swim-throughs that are just wide enough, and you can still see hints of its working life – a ladder here, a section of railing there, all encrusted now with thick layers of sponges and hydroids. Keep an eye out for resident scorpionfish camouflaged on the hull, and we’ve often spotted moray eels peeking from the darker crevices. The currents can be fierce, especially on incoming tides, so plan your dive around slack water for the best chance to properly explore. It's a deep dive, yes, but the payoff is a wreck with real character, a true piece of Jeju's maritime history.
