An Enemy Has Appeared, Raise the Beacon!… Ulsan Daegok Museum's Bongsugun Experience Program

First-Come, First-Served Registration for Elementary Student Families from the 9th, Over Two Days on the 19th and 20th

The Bongsugun (烽燧軍) fought like this! A program allowing participants to experience the Bongsugun, who raised beacon fires to alert of enemy invasions all the way to Hanyang, will be held in Ulsan.

Ulsan Daegok Museum announced on the 7th that it will operate an experiential learning program for elementary school students and their families over two days, on the 19th and 20th, during the summer vacation.

This experiential learning program is themed "Raise the Beacon!" It is linked to this year's special exhibition "Bongsu, the Relay of Torches and Smoke," where participants will learn about the history, structure, and function of bongsu, and become Bongsugun themselves to carry out missions. The experience will take place in the museum's front yard, where participants will raise the beacon fire.

The program will be held four times in total, twice each day on the 19th and 20th at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., with each session lasting about 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Applications for the program must be submitted through the Ulsan City Public Facility Reservation Service website from 9 a.m. on the 9th until 6 p.m. on August 16. A total of 24 families, including elementary school students (6 families per session), will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. For more details, please refer to the Daegok Museum website.

A representative from Ulsan Daegok Museum said, "We hope this program will provide participants with memorable experiences with their families and serve as an opportunity to foster interest in the bongsu relics of our region."

Ulsan Daegok Museum is currently holding a special exhibition titled "Bongsu, the Relay of Torches and Smoke," commemorating the designation of the Je2ro Jikbong-Ulsan Buro Mountain Bongsu as a historic site, in the special exhibition hall until August 27.
