By the way for anyone that has not been to Ulleungdo, it is one of my favorite places in South Korea. A really beautiful island that is fun to hike around.

Cool, GI… You have photos to share? Lessons learned/things to avoid while still having fun?
Setnaffa, the biggest issue with Ulleungdo-do is just getting there. The ferry boat ride can be delayed by weather, I was stuck four extra days on Ulleung-do because of the poor sea states. The boat ride also had a lot of drunks to contend with and rude behavior to contend with:
The island itself though is really beautiful and there are plenty of taxi drivers to take people around the island to see the sites. I even hiked to the summit of the island and completely across it. If I go back I would like to hike completely hike around it or even do some sea kayaking if the sea states are suitable.
I even took a boat out to Dokdo before which was quite an experience as well:
