A multilingual interactive archive maps Jeju haenyeo culture through live tides, demographic data, heritage milestones, and the knowledge at risk of disappearing.

Why it surfaced

The site places a live tide map beside stark figures: 2,371 active haenyeo, 63% aged 70 or older, and a decline from more than 14,000 divers in the 1970s. Its most thoughtful move is also an ethical one: it maps approximate fishing-community areas rather than publishing the precise locations of shared fishing grounds.
