About

A musical staged on the Nam River itself, where the story happened: Nongae, the gisaeng who pulled a Japanese general into the water at Uiam Rock during the Imjin War, retold on a floating stage beneath the lit Chokseongnu pavilion with fireworks and full-scale staging. Runs during the Jinju Nongae Festival.
