Published programme

"2026 National Heritage Media Art: Cheongju Yongduji Iron Bell, etc." is a nighttime cultural event that uses media art to express the historical value of cultural heritage sites in the old downtown area of Cheongju, including the Yongduji Iron Bell, Mangseonjeong Pavilion, Apgaksu, and the gate of the Chungcheong-do Byeongmajeoldosa-yeong (military administration office). The theme of the event is "Unveiling Cheongju's Treasures with Light." It reinterprets the symbolic meaning of Jusung, a historical geographical feature of Cheongju, through modern media art, transforming the old downtown area into a vast stage for a journey where visitors can discover the value (treasures) of Cheongju's national heritage spanning a thousand years. The event features media facade installations, immersive sound tours, photo zones, and citizen participation programs, all utilizing the four cultural heritage sites. It will run for 22 days, from October 3rd to October 24th, 2026, with operating hours from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM daily.
