The 22nd Poeun Cultural Festival is a historical and cultural festival that commemorates the life and spirit of Poeun Jeong Mong-ju and shares traditional culture with citizens. In 2026, to commemorate the 620th anniversary of the death of Professor Jeong Mong-ju, known as Poeun, an event titled "The Spirit of Poeun: Connecting 620 Years" will be held from October 10th to 11th. The event will take place in the area surrounding Professor Jeong Mong-ju's tomb in Mohyeon-eup, Cheoin-gu, Yongin City. Through the ceiling mural and memorial rituals, visitors can reflect on the legacy of Professor Po-eun. The event also features a commemorative ceremony, celebratory performances, the Yongin City Folk Art Festival, and performances by winners of the National Youth Traditional Music Competition, providing opportunities to experience traditional arts. Po Eun School offers a festival featuring traditional cultural experiences and citizen participation programs, providing a platform for families to learn about and enjoy history together. The event also features a variety of food trucks and spaces to sell local food products and agricultural specialties, making it a platform to share and celebrate the local culture. Following the Cheoin Culture Festival in September, the RE-BORN mission involves participants undertaking the role of "Cheoin Guardians," connecting the historical narratives of both festivals and offering interactive programs that allow people to experience the history and culture of Yongin.
