This is a type of native pig that only lives in Jeju Special Self-governed Province of Korea.  Native pigs that live throughout the country seem to have originated from the small-sized pigs that were raised in the northern part of China in the Goguryeo Empire.  It seems that these small pigs were transmitted to Jeju Special Self-governed Province around this time and settled as its native species.
Similar to other native pigs, our pigs are covered with a shiny black coat and have narrow faces and long mouths.  Their ears are small, unfolded, and pointing up.  They are smaller in size than other foreign breeds and have narrower bellies.  Their chests are relatively broad, butts are small and fatless, and legs are short and well-balanced.
Our pigs are high in helpful protein, limestone, unsaturated fatty acid, essential fatty acid (Omega 3), and oleic acid and low in fat and calories. They are highly resistant to diseases and quickly adjustable to environmental changes.  Because they are exceptional in quality and taste as meat, we usually breed them for table use.
