For those wanting to enjoy a traditional Chuseok holiday feast, Namsangol Hanok Village at the foot of Mount Namsan in Seoul is holding a two-day festival.
The village consists of five hanok (traditional Korean houses) of the Joseon era (1392-1910).
Titled “Five Nobleman’s Harvest Feast,” the event showcases a traditional Chuseok feast at yangban (nobles) residence Monday and Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Highlights of the feast include practice of ancestral rites and songpyeon-making, pansori (Korean traditional opera), ganggangsullae (Korean circle dance) and a puppet show. Songpyeon is a half-moon shaped rice cake commonly enjoyed during Chuseok holidays.
The folk games that will be played include spinning wheels, traditional board games and shuttlecock kicking.
Admission is free, but some programs are charged. For details, visit http://hanokmaeul.or.kr or call (02) 2261-0502.
