Getting there

About

A one-day festival for young residents of Yongsan-gu built around the idea of rest — the programme is framed as emptying the mind, refilling energy and heading back out into the world. It runs in the former officers' quarters at Yongsan Park, the site handed back after more than a century of military use and now one of central Seoul's most unusual public spaces. The stage bill mixes dance crews, a gugak ensemble, magic and pop acts. Free.
