[전남=NSP통신] 보티민트 인턴기자 = Suncheon is the city that is the home to many of South Korea's cultural assets, just afer Gyeongju and Seoul

The International Garden Exposition Suncheon Bay 2013, Korea will be opened in Suncheon, a very popular tourist attraction with a thousand year history

If you want a very special trip to Suncheon, let's try the feeling of being the main character of a drama right now

In Suncheon, everyone can have an experience of being a character in a drama. In 2003, the hit drama 'Daechanggeum' which contributed to the 'Korean Wave' was filmed in the Nakan- eupseong Folk Village of Suncheon

Also, there are many dramas that were filmed in Suncheon City, Jorye-dong such as 'The Baker King, Kim Tak Goo', 'Giant'. The sets for those dramas that display Korean people lifestyle in the 70s and 80s are still opened in the moment

This is a set for shooting dramas in Suncheon City, Jorye-dong. This place displays Korean life from 1950 to 1970. This set is the largest domestic set for filming dramas and was built on a hill slope which is very animated. When the set was being built, all the debris from the demolished poor hillside villages in Seoul remained and moved to the set to replicate the exact hillside villages of Bongcheon-dong in the past

When you walk across the set, you will enjoy the fantasy of the real past's atmosphere. It will bring back the sweet memories of the ordinary Korean past life

The Nakan-eupseong Folk Vilage has been pushed ahead with the registration as a World Heritage Site by Suncheon City and listed as South Korea's Representative Tourist Spot No.16 by CNN. After the drama 'Daechanggeum' was broadcasted, this place became very popular for shooting scenes for historical dramas

Come to the Nakan-eupseong Folk Vilage, you will be embodied in the atmosphere full of Korean classical music and the sound of Korean stringed instruments. You can also experience making pottery, hanji, woodcrafts and dying materials with natural colors... If you want to enjoy the full measure of autumn, there are 35 Korean traditional houses where you can stay

Every year in May and October, there are many festivals held in the Nakan-eupseong Village with many good foods and events. 'The Nakan-eupseong Folk Village Festival' along with the Korean traditional folk culture contests are very great festivals to attend

Before the opening of '2013 Suncheon Bay Garden Expo', there will be 'The Nakan Folk Cultural Festival' and 'The Great Namdo Cuisine Cultural Party', which visitors will have many good experiences about Suncheon's cuisine and style

If the Nakan-eupseong Folk Village and Jorye-dong drama set brings you sweet memories about the past, the Juam Lake and Hoban Riverside surrounding Suncheon City will bring you really good experience as you enjoy the wonderful landscapes

Seonamsa and Songgwangsa temples are located among the Jorge and Mohu moutains and 884 meters above Juam Lake. The lake is so beautiful and the mountains, forests, and water all sustain the local population.

In 1991, Juam Dam was built on Juam Lake for various purposes. Juam Dam's pondage is about 457 million tones. There is no polution and the water is very pure and clean

The Suncheon Drama Set brings back your sweet memories about Korean dramas, the Nakan-eupseong Folk Village brings you nice experiences about the Chosun people 's daily life, Juam Lake attracts you by its wonderful and gorgeous beauty... A nice trip is waiting for you in Suncheon City
