Romance of Saturday Night... Gumi-si Hosts 'Geumridan-gil Alley Festival'

On the 2nd, Gumi City in Gyeongbuk held the 'Geumridan-gil Alley Festival Starting with Small Happiness Sharing' in the Geumridan-gil area as part of the Seonjuwonnam-dong urban regeneration project.

The Geumridan-gil Alley Festival held on the 2nd in the Geumridan-gil area.

This event was organized by the Gumi City Social Economy Enterprise Council and the representative organizations of residents from Gaksan Village, aiming to revitalize the self-sustaining alley commercial district and establish a sustainable event foundation with the participation of Gaksan Village residents and merchants.

The somewhat dark night street of Geumridan-gil along the wall of Wonpyeong Catholic Church (Gumosan-ro) was illuminated with lights, and the flea market booths, experience play areas, and food sharing booths were bustling with visitors throughout the event. The busking performances arranged by time slots heightened the atmosphere on site, making the festival space even more romantic.

In particular, at this flea market (plumarket), various items such as clothing, home interior accessories, and handmade products were sold, and diverse experience programs (wood burning on cutting boards, making flower bracelets & keyrings, flower tea experience, etc.) were held for visitors, resulting in high satisfaction among attendees.

The city plans to deliver the donations and donated goods collected through the event to neighbor-sharing activities in Gaksan Village in September, further promoting the spirit of local coexistence connected through virtuous cycles.

Mayor Kim Jang-ho said, “As intended by the urban regeneration project, I hope that various activities led by residents and merchants continue to invigorate the area and that Geumridan-gil will develop further as a famous spot in Gumi.”
