[1] Korean paulownia is a tall and broadleaf deciduous tree, growing to a height of 15–20 m (50–65 ft) with a diameter of 75 cm (30 in).

The other characteristics of the leaves are that they have opposite leaf arrangement and netted venation.

[clarification needed][3] Since Korean paulownia is light, and easy to handle, it is considered good lumber.

It also grows rapidly, so when cultivated, it helps prevent disease in plants.

In addition, Paulownia coreana’s bark plays a great role in oriental medicine.
