From the Rediscovered Uijeongbu Site, All Together in Yeominrak (Harmony with the People)
At the Uijeongbu site where state affairs were discussed during the Joseon Dynasty,
we bring back to life the meaning of Yeominrak, “to enjoy together with the people.”
A special beauty of gugak (Korean traditional music) enjoyed by all citizens in daily life,
now unfolds as our era’s Yeominrak at the newly rediscovered Uijeongbu site.
From dynamic performances by gugak musicians to participatory stages with citizens including foreigners, people with disabilities, and gugak enthusiasts,
from diverse traditional experiences that awaken the senses to one-day classes where you can learn and feel gugak firsthand,
the 2025 Seoul Gugak Festival invites you to experience the charm and depth of tradition interpreted through the emotions of today.
