Public shows at Jeju Education and Science Research Institute: Yes

Education-office science institute with planetarium; student programs. Check the official site for the current schedule and tickets before you go.

A planetarium show is the one astronomy outing that clouds and city lights cannot cancel. Most public shows run 30 to 50 minutes; live shows, where a presenter flies the sky to tonight's planets and constellations, are the best preparation for a night at a dark site. Shows often sell out on weekends and school holidays.

Jeju Education and Science Research Institute has a 13 m (43 ft) dome and 124 seats

That makes it a mid-size dome, typical of science museums and large universities. The largest planetarium domes in the world are about 35 m across; a classroom dome is 5 to 8 m.

Its star projector is the Goto GX-10, an optical instrument that shines pinpoint stars through a ball of lenses, the classic planetarium sky.

How dark the real sky is outside Jeju Education and Science Research Institute

Jeju Education and Science Research Institute has no Bortle rating in the list yet. The scale below shows what each class looks like.

1 mag 8.0 21.99+ 2 mag 7.5 21.89+ 3 mag 7.0 21.69+ 4 mag 6.5 20.49+ 5 mag 6.0 19.50+ 6 mag 5.5 18.94+ 7 mag 5.0 18.38+ 8 mag 4.5 18.00+ 9 mag 4.0
The Bortle scale. Each panel shows the class number, the faintest star the naked eye reaches at the zenith, and the darkest-edge sky brightness reading of that class in mag/arcsec².

Sky brightness and class come from the World Atlas of Artificial Night Sky Brightness (Falchi et al. 2016, CC BY-NC 4.0), with natural skyglow added, at the coordinates below. Planetariums sit in towns, so the dome shows the sky the street outside cannot; the dark sky places nearby show the real one.
