The ‘Vibrant Spaces, Seongbuk-gu and Festivals’ section of the Seongbuk Village Archive collects, documents, and organizes vivid on-site photos, related articles, videos, posters, and other records of these various local festivals by year, allowing visitors to observe their transformation over time.
