The scene of the Joseon Royal Tombs Concert held last year at Yungneung Royal Tomb in Hwaseong.

The Joseon Royal Tombs Western District Office will operate the program "Walking the Western Path of the Joseon Royal Tombs with Joy" from May 16 to October 10 at five Joseon royal tombs in Gyeonggi Province. The participating sites are Seooreung and Seosamneung in Goyang, Samneung in Paju, Jangneung in Gimpo, and Yunggeolleung in Hwaseong.

The program consists of historical walks, royal tomb music concerts, and exploration and hands-on activities. At Seooreung, the "Joseon Royal Tombs Family Expedition" will take place on May 17 for families with elementary school children, allowing them to enjoy exploration and games at the royal tombs. On October 10, the "Seooreung Music Concert" will be held, where participants can listen to stories about Queen Jeongseong, the first wife of King Yeongjo, and Lady Yeongbin Lee, the biological mother of Crown Prince Sado, along with music.

At Samneung in Paju, a music concert focusing on the lives of Queen Jangsun and Queen Gonghye, the two daughters of Han Myeonghoe—who gained attention through the film "The King and the Clown"—will be held on June 13. At Jangneung in Gimpo, traditional Korean music performances will take place around the lotus pond inhabited by mandarin ducks on May 30 and September 3.
