The program includes ▲ watching a Goguryeo-themed animated video ▲ viewing artifacts used by Goguryeo soldiers ▲ trying on armor ▲ and archery experience.

The animation to be shown is a Goguryeo original titled "Wildflowers Blooming on the Helmet (Subtitle - The Story of a General in Goguryeo Blacksmith Village)," which interestingly depicts the story of a brave general who came to Goguryeo Blacksmith Village during the war between Goguryeo and Baekje over the Han River basin 1,500 years ago.
