[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Hong Jae-hee] To attract family tourists during the summer vacation, the Wangdo History Museum in Iksan, Jeonbuk, has prepared a variety of cultural experience programs.

On the 20th, the Wangdo History Museum announced that it will hold various cultural experience programs at the Wanggung-ri Relics Exhibition Hall and the Mahan Museum to overcome 'Corona Blue,' a depression caused by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

At the Wanggung-ri Relics Exhibition Hall, a 'Summer Vacation Museum Outing' will be held on the 13th of next month from 4 p.m. for 30 participants, including students in third grade or above and their parents.

This experience is a combined program featuring education on the local Baekje culture under the theme 'Jewels Loved by Baekje People, Glass,' along with a courtyard concert, allowing participants to enjoy history and culture at once.

Applications are accepted on the Wanggung-ri Relics Exhibition Hall website until the 31st of this month, with a participation fee of 10,000 KRW per person. For inquiries, contact the exhibition hall.

At the Mahan Museum, from the second (July 5?7) and third weeks (July 12?14) of next month, from Wednesday to Friday, the 'Mahan Treasure Exploration Team' will be held for students in grades 3 to 6.

The 'Mahan Treasure Exploration Team,' newly established this year, will be operated twice. The first session focuses on 'Birds of Mahan,' and the second on 'Jade of Mahan,' offering exploration of Mahan relics and career experience as a museum curator.

Participation is free, and applications can be made by phone to the Mahan Museum from the 21st to the 31st of this month.

Additionally, the Wanggung-ri Relics Exhibition Hall plans to hold 'Confession and Sensitivity Travel ? A Museum Trip to Old Baekje' starting from the 15th of next month, in collaboration with the National Iksan Museum and Gil Youth Research Institute.

Kwon Su-heon, director of the Wangdo History Museum, said, "This museum program will be a great opportunity to experience Iksan, the center of Mahan and Baekje," and added, "We hope it will be a time to refresh the weary hearts affected by COVID-19."
