I heard that the festival will start today, how is the atmosphere there?
[Reporter]
It hasn't been long since the festival started, and the atmosphere is already in full bloom.Performances are in full swing outside of
Gochang-eupseong.
It's around lunch now, so you can see many tourists filling up their hunger in the food booth.
The representative program of the shape festival I found is 'Dapseong Nori'.
It's literally the Dapseong Nori that goes around the castle.
A festival program was made into a legend that if you go around the castle with a stone on your head, you will get better from a leg bottle, if you go around two times, you will live long and healthy, and if you go around three times, you will ascend to paradise.
The shape of this place is built on flat land and hillside, and the circumference is about 1.7km, so walking is less burdensome.
Those who come will be able to enjoy the open surroundings while going around the castle for a walk.
As it is a festival derived from legend, this year, several experience events and performances for young people have been reinforced to encompass generations.
It starts at 10 a.m. every day in and out of the town.
In particular, programs with the theme of Hanyang in the Joseon Dynasty are interested.
"Wise Life of Hanryang," "Spacing Out Contest," and "Shape Philosophy Hall" have been prepared to enjoy the event with performers dressed as various Hanryang.
Children's Carrot Market for family tourists, English experience events, and youth festivals will also be held.
The illuminated night view of the town, drone shows, and performances of invited singers are also waiting for tourists.
At night, a night-time dapseongnori will begin, and a Ganggangsullae competition will be held in the square where residents wear colorful hanboks.The
Texture agent runs for five days from today to this weekend.
So far, I'm YTN Kim Minsung in Gochang, Jeollabuk-do.
