Getting there

About

A performing-arts festival devoted to madanggeuk — Korea's open-air folk theater of satire, humor, and audience participation — co-hosted with the national madanggeuk association. Now in its third year, it turns the Gwangmyeong Civic Stadium grounds into an open stage for madanggeuk, fusion gugak, circus, and street performance, with citizen-participation programs alongside. The form's defining trait is that the line between stage and audience disappears — expect to be pulled in. Free, 16:00–21:00.

Description translated from official Korean tourism data. Details can change — verify with the organizer before you go.
