Getting there

About

The Jung-gu Book Festival builds on the diverse reading cultures and voices discovered within Jung-gu, bringing them together to foster new connections throughout the district. Presenting the district as a place shaped by layers of stories accumulated over time, the festival traces the time embedded in its alleys, the memories preserved in the old downtown, the lives of its people, and the emotions held by the community. In doing so, it uncovers and connects the stories that already exist within Jung-gu in a different perspective.
