Information

The facts

The Korean Folk Village, located in Yongin City, Gyeonggi Province, is one of the most popular and most well-demonstrated folk village that offers visitors a glimpse of traditional Korean life and culture. Just an hour south of the city, it is a great spot for a quick escape from the city with families and friends.

Set in a natural environment occupying approximately 243 acres, visitors can experience the natural atmosphere with over 260 traditional houses reminiscent of the late Joseon Dynasty, including various household goods from different regions.

All these features have been relocated and restored to provide visitors with a broad understanding of Korean food, clothing, and housing style of the past.

It's also where the 2014 hit K-drama "My Love from the Stars" was shot. Remember the scene where alien Do Min Joon had visited Korea during the Joseon Dynasty?

This destination has been used as a backdrop for popular Korean TV dramas like "Jewel in the Palace."
