I need to know how to romanize this island/town name. Not sure if it's located in China or Korea, but this is how the name appears in Japanese, regarding a cruise that boarded there. Thanks in advance!

Jeju Island
I am from Jeju Island. It is the southernmost Province of South Korea. It is an island as well as one of the 9 Provinces of South Korea. If you refer to it as an island, it would be called 'Jeju Island'. If you refer to it as a Province, it would be called 'Jeju Special Self-Governing Province'. It used to be spelled as "Cheju", which is officially corrected as Standard Orthography. I link the official webpage below. You can see it in English or Japanese.
