A wildflower paradise created with pure passion
All the wildflowers you're looking for are here!

This book is not intended strictly for academic purposes, but rather is a wildflower guide designed to satisfy the overflowing curiosity of wildflower enthusiasts.
The purpose is to make their existence widely known by properly calling out the names of the countless wild flowers that bloom in the fields and mountains across the country.
The author was upset that these wildflowers were simply dismissed as weeds, and so he became involved with wildflowers in the hope of learning more about them.
Believing that the owners of this land are the people who settled here before humans even existed, I have spent over ten years searching for wild flowers, trying not to damage the land and environment where they live.
『Easy-to-find Wildflower Guide』 is a selection of wild flower photos collected through such active hobbies.
In fact, as I was trying to create a field guide, I found myself unfamiliar with many plant-related terms, but I believe that my pure passion will be able to properly satisfy the needs of other pure wildflower enthusiasts.


Chapter 1 is “Wildflowers You Can Find Around the House.”
When people think of wildflowers, they usually think of them as flowers that grow in the mountains or fields, but these days, it is not difficult to see these wildflowers growing in apartment complexes, on asphalt roads, or even between the cracks in the sidewalk blocks in the middle of the city.
This chapter contains 112 species of wildflowers that can be found relatively easily even in the city where we live.

Chapter 2 is “Wildflowers You Can Find in the Mountains and Fields.”
For those who forage for wildflowers, their bodies start to ache as the year turns and a new year begins.
In some areas of the southern islands and the east coast, the 'revenge grass' buds burst open before January is over, tempting them.
This chapter contains 658 species of wildflowers that can be found mainly in the mountains and fields from spring to fall.

Chapter 3 is “Wildflowers You Can Find at the Water’s Edge.”
As with all plants, those that grow in water or near water (wetlands) play a particularly important role in maintaining ecological balance in the natural environment.
This chapter contains 126 species of wildflowers that can be found mainly in water, watersides (wetlands), and tidal flats.

Chapter 4 is about “wild grasses that take root in the ground and live.”
As his interest in wildflowers grew, the author said that at some point, even after work, he would spend at least two or three hours exploring nearby mountain slopes and fields, and became interested in plants other than the typical wildflowers.
This chapter contains 99 species of grasses, cycads, and rhizomes that the author encountered along the way.

Chapter 5 is "The Oldest Fern on Earth."
Ferns are the oldest and most primitive plants with vascular bundles in their tissues, and there are about 10,000 species of ferns on Earth.
It is estimated that there are about 350 species native to Korea, and this chapter includes 22 species that are relatively easy to distinguish, including 'Gwanjung', which has a rather majestic appearance.
