In particular, this is a new form of street theater where tourists visiting Namsa Yedamchon, known as ‘Korea’s Most Beautiful Village No. 1,’ can walk along the hanok houses and stone wall paths to deeply experience tradition and history.


Rather than simply explaining tradition and history, professional actors perform role plays as storytellers, and the audience participates in the walking tour. Various events such as quizzes are held during the tour to increase engagement and satisfaction.


The pilot operation on the 17th will begin at 10 a.m., and on the 24th and 25th, it will start at 2 p.m. The course starts from Gyeonghwadang, passes by the Chinese scholar tree and Yeongmojae, then continues along Yedam-gil, the Ha family old house persimmon tree, and ends at Sayangjeongsa.



County Governor Lee Seung-hwa said, “This walking theater was planned to make the tradition, history, and culture of Namsa Yedamchon easily and enjoyably accessible to tourists,” adding, “We will continue to develop new and differentiated tourism content to attract more visitors.”
