For this 7th anniversary event, a special exhibition of unpublished poems by Park Mokwol, a leading figure of the "Cheongnokpa" who lyrically sang the beauty of nature, titled "Moments Woven with Poems," will be held. Among 166 unpublished handwritten poems by Park Mokwol, 17 poems were carefully selected, covering five themes: daily life and the poet's life, people and innocence, faith, family, and nature, allowing visitors to empathize with the poet's life, emotions, and philosophy on objects and situations. Along with this, a recitation listening zone reproducing Park Mokwol's voice using AI has also been prepared.

On the 31st, Park Donggyu, the eldest son of Park Mokwol and honorary professor of Korean literature at Seoul National University, will give a special lecture discussing the life of the poet and father, Park Mokwol. On the following day, the 1st, a "Poem Concert" will be held where attendees can enjoy recitations of Park Mokwol's poems along with soothing classical music.

In addition, a "Guest Lecture by Notable Figures" will be held featuring Choi Jinseok, principal of Saemal Saemomjit Basic School, and Sister Lee Haein. There will also be performances featuring pianist Son Yeol-eum and others.
