Word origin

The name Hallasan combines Halla, a traditional place-name element from Jeju, with san, the Korean word for mountain, although Halla's original meaning is uncertain.

Usage tips

Hallasan names one specific mountain, so it is treated as a proper name rather than translated as a general word for a mountain.
