'Night at Saenggwabang' allows participants to savor royal desserts while listening to traditional Korean music, while 'Sojubang Gastronomy' features a play centered around royal cuisine, followed by a tasting experience.
There will also be a 'Kitchen Alley' where visitors can sample royal snacks like raspberry jeonggwa and persimmon. Hands-on activities include making traditional multi-colored dasik (Korean tea sweets) and crafting fabric keychains.
