A photo zone utilizing the symbolic sculpture and lighting of the Moonlight Night Market will be set up. Music performances and other events will take place on the indoor stage. Additionally, reflecting Yeouido’s characteristic as a global financial hub, English will be included alongside Korean on the market’s guides and promotional materials so that foreigners can also enjoy the night market atmosphere by the Han River.


To participate in carbon reduction efforts, a reusable container service will be piloted. All beverages sold at the night market will be served in reusable containers that are collected, washed, and reused, with container return bins installed alongside recycling stations. Campaigns offering discounts on food for customers who bring their own reusable containers will also be conducted.


Civil servants, police officers, medical personnel, and safety management staff will be deployed throughout the event site and surrounding roads. If a dangerous situation is expected due to crowd congestion, immediate dispersal will be carried out.


After the event ends, trash disposal and surrounding cleaning will be completed by 5 a.m. the next day to ensure a pleasant park environment.



Seoul City requested visitors to check the official website or Instagram announcements before visiting, as the event schedule may change in case of rain.
