About this audio guide
This guide to Gapado, off Jeju's coast, traces how a windswept island of fewer than two hundred people became a real-world test of running on nothing but wind and sun. It follows the two turbines raised in 2013, the rooftop solar that came after, and the handful of cars left on an island most people now cross on foot or bicycle. Nearly all of it can be walked in under two hours.
