Those rocks were actually tetrapods.
Tetrapods are large, four-legged concrete structures used in coastal engineering to protect shorelines and harbor walls from wave erosion. Their distinctive shape, resembling four-legged creatures, helps dissipate the energy of incoming waves, significantly reducing their impact.
By breaking up wave action, tetrapods minimize the force exerted on the coast or structures they guard, making them an effective tool for coastal protection.

Due to the inherent danger, Korea’s Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries enforces a fine of up to ₩1 million KRW (approximately S$969) for climbing on or being atop tetrapods.
