A winter festival was held in Baegun Valley in Pocheon, where the mountains and valleys are harmonized and the scenery is beautiful.

You can enjoy the romance of winter with various experiences of enjoying snow and ice.

There is an issue reporter on the scene. Reporter Seo Jihyun!

More and more citizens are visiting there?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

It's a snow world here with snow until the morning.

As the snow stops and in the afternoon, the place is crowded with families enjoying the festival.

I'm in front of the spinning sledding slope.

Now, as you can see behind me, the kids are really excitedly enjoying the sledding.


It seems that you are immersed in the beauty of the winter festival while forgetting the cold.

Marking its 20th anniversary this year, the Baegun Valley Dongdong-gun Festival provides special memories that are hard to experience in the city by utilizing the natural winter scenery.

The festival opens today and lasts until February 2nd next year.

It is full of programs that enjoy beautiful natural scenery and winter charm on about 3,000 pyeong of land.

The first thing that attracts visitors' attention is a large ice sculpture of 5-6m, the symbol of the festival.

Visitors are busy taking pictures in front of a large blue-colored ice tree made using pristine water from Pocheon's pine trees and Baekwoon Valley.

On the other hand, you can immerse yourself in old memories while playing traditional ice sledding and top-spinning on the ice.

In addition, children are having a good time because they can experience igloo as well as various rides.

Then let's listen to the stories of the citizens who visited this place.

[Yoo Ki-young / Parkdal-dong, Anyang-si, Gyeonggi-do: I came to the Dong-gun Festival and the snow scene was so pretty. It was nice to come here with my daughter and experience snow sledding and snowball fights.]

[Yu Ra-eun / Parkdal-dong, Anyang-si, Gyeonggi-do: Sledding was fun.]

You can also ice fish for trout on the ice.

You can catch winter fish using an ice hole, and you can catch smelt indoors in a garden.

Visitors' faces are full of laughter at winter games that are enjoyed in various ways in beautiful natural scenery.

Why don't you make precious memories where you can spend the cold warm this year in a place like a winter kingdom?

So far, I'm Seo Ji-hyun of YTN at the Pocheon Dongdong-gun Festival.
