This event was designed as a small-scale gathering, allowing participants to engage in deeper experiences and interactions, and to enjoy true healing in the midst of nature.


Taking place in the forest after sunset under dazzling lights, the "Starlight Yoga" session offered a special opportunity for participants to relax and regain inner peace through yoga and meditation led by a professional instructor. The on-site wellness program, which combined soothing music with a sense of unity with nature, received an enthusiastic response from attendees.


Before the yoga program, a variety of pre-event activities were offered, including: emotional profile photo shoots, flying yoga experiences, DIY mood lamp making, and hinoki cypress aroma healing. In particular, the instructor personally demonstrated flying yoga and assisted participants with their photo sessions, further enhancing the atmosphere.


All participants received generous gifts. Practical and sentimental items such as GNC collagen, Hwacheon specialty perilla oil, Hwacheon Love Gift Certificates, yoga socks, illuminated rose flowers and vases, mini suitcases, gym balls, and plush toys were provided, greatly increasing participant satisfaction. Additionally, after the event, a variety of prizes such as Xexymix and Melkin yoga mats and travel folding boxes were distributed, marking a joyful conclusion.


An American participant residing in Korea shared, "It was a unique experience to enjoy yoga and various activities as part of K-experience tourism. The thoughtful preparation of the programs and gifts made me feel very satisfied."
