Published programme

'You shall not return until you are merry!' The royal night market Bulchwimugwi, inspired by historical stories of King Jeongjo, returns with an expanded Season 2. Held around Suwon Nammun Market every Saturday from October 10 to 31, 2026, for a total of 4 sessions, this nighttime festival combines the traditional market's history and culture with food, performances and hands-on activities that encourage visitors to linger. The event area extends into pedestrianized streets and market arcades so visitors can explore freely. Food options include Nammun Jangteo, run directly by market merchants, the outdoor Yajang Madang dining area and food trucks. Visitors can also explore the market through a game in which they complete missions and rise in rank, alongside participatory events. Distinctive session themes such as 'The Return of the King' and 'Joseon Ghosts' add variety. Bulchwimugwi Season 2 brings together Suwon's history and the energy of Nammun Market, inviting residents and tourists to eat, walk and enjoy a fresh experience of the city at night.
