Why go
The Korean Folk Village near Yongin is a sprawling open-air museum that recreates a traditional Joseon-era village, with hundreds of relocated and reconstructed houses.
Costumed artisans, farmers' music, tightrope walking and horseback performances bring old daily life to the streets, and it's a frequent filming location for historical dramas.
It's an easy, engaging half- to full-day trip, often paired with Everland or Suwon's Hwaseong Fortress.
