Ulleung County, Island administrative region in North Gyeongsang, South Korea.

The county spans 73 square kilometers across Ulleungdo and 44 smaller islands in the East Sea, featuring mountains and coastal landscapes.

The territory became part of the Silla Kingdom in 512 when they conquered Usan-guk, establishing control over the strategic maritime location.

The Ulleungdo Donggyeongje festival brings together residents to perform traditional music and share local specialties like mugwort rice cakes.

Visitors reach the county through regular ferry services departing from Pohang Port and Mukho Port on the mainland of South Korea.

The county produces specialized agricultural products in volcanic soil, including mountain vegetables and mushrooms found nowhere else in Korea.
