The program offers ten hearing-impaired residents of Seoul, who have made prior reservations, a hanbok experience and free exploration of Gyeongbokgung. For the latter, the "Viewing Service for the Hearing Impaired" planned by the Gyeongbokgung Management Office will be utilized. By playing the explanatory videos through the QR code embedded in the sign language interpretation promotional materials, visitors can easily navigate the main pavilions.
