Picking Green Tea Leaves, Picking Spring

The season for the green tea harvest has come. Farmers look busy picking the green tea leaves, which rise high above the farmland like the tongue of a sparrow, on a green tea farm in Goseong-ri, Aewol-eub, Bukjeju-gun, Jeju Island on April 13.

Green tea, harvested prior to Gokwoo Day (April 20), which is renowned for making all kinds of crops shinier, is known as “Woojeon.”
