4As a quick clarification, then according to the page linked in this answer then nationals of other countries may visit Jeju Island without a visa for up to 30 days for transit or tourism, even if they would normally require a visa to visit South Korea. Commented Aug 2, 2019 at 10:14

Pakistani nationals now need a South Korean tourist visa to visit Jeju island. Last year up to April 2018, this was not the case and I was lucky enough to have this beautiful island in January 2018.
