🎪 About the Festival

This is a festival hosted and organized by
Yangdong-myeon and the Yangpyeong Buchu Festival Committee,
now in its 7th year.
It’s described as a community-led festival
created together by local schools, farms, and residents.

According to the Ministry’s guide,
the festival aims to promote
the premium buchu of Yangdong-myeon
and the excellent local specialties of Yangpyeong-gun.

This year’s name is
Buchu-da Yangpyeong Buchu Festival.
The theme is ‘A festival full of flavor, joy, and happiness.’

The festival website introduces Yangdong-myeon as
the easternmost part of Yangpyeong,
rich in forests and home to the best buchu in Korea,
as well as a source of eco-friendly produce like
mulberry, bitter lettuce, yam, and beans.

According to the poster, the festival area includes
the main stage, buchu gukbap zone, and local produce market.

✨ What’s Happening When?

There’s no detailed timetable yet,

The poster lists guest singers
Kim So-yu, Bini Saem, and Kim Na-hee.
It doesn’t specify who performs at what time.

The opening celebration is at 11:00 on Friday,
so if you go on the first morning,

🍲 What Can You Eat or Buy?

The festival website highlights the
buchu food market where you can taste fresh Yangpyeong buchu.

The main dish is Buchu-da Buchu Gukbap.
The poster says, ‘Packed full without holding back!’

There’s no official information on food prices.
