Additionally, the live historical musical "Uigi Nongae," which was planned to be held concurrently during the night tour, canceled the performance on the 11th to ensure the safety of visitors. The performances from the 12th to the 14th will proceed as scheduled.

A city official stated, "We expect some confusion due to the sudden change in the night tour schedule, but we ask for your understanding as this was an unavoidable decision prioritizing the safety of citizens and tourists due to the typhoon moving northward over the Korean Peninsula." He added, "We will thoroughly prepare for the remaining period and do our best to promote the event through various media such as press releases and social media to prevent any misunderstandings."
