Paldal-gu announced on the 25th that the 'Minari-gwang Market Day' was held on the 24th at Jidong Bridge.
Every Saturday at Jidong Bridge, nine traditional markets near Paldalgate hold 'Traditional Market Saturday Cultural Performances,' with each market hosting its market day once a week.
At the 'Minari-gwang Market Day,' a fashion hand-painting experience where visitors could draw directly on clothing and bags to create one-of-a-kind precious works was so popular that people had to wait in line. A game where children shot water guns to topple paper cups and won patbingsu (shaved ice) as a prize was also the most popular program for kids.
In addition, experience booths featuring activities such as twisty Thousand Character Classic games and making your own coffee captivated passersby, with prepared materials selling out due to the crowds.
Starting at 6 p.m., after the intense heat passed and cool breezes blew, belly dance, traditional Korean dance performances, underground singer Jang Jeong-chul, and GG Band presented splendid sights and exciting musical melodies to citizens visiting the traditional market with world music performances including Latin and Jamaican styles. The sunset sky, refreshing breeze, and the night view of Hwaseong Castle in the background transformed the venue into an elegant and romantic performance space.
A district official said, "On the 31st, 'Jidong Market Day' will be held with experience activities including traditional games, constellation keychain making, twisty Thousand Character Classic, and performances by the operetta troupe (Ssong Brothers) and underground singers."
