Naganeupseong is very popular folk village in Korea and maybe one of the largest. It is located very south in Suncheon region. What makes this place special is that people actually live here. It is kind of a UNESCO living museum.
yeah it is a real life village. I believe the people there live for free in exchange for having to keep the houses “traditional” and wearing traditional clothes within the village opening hours.

Yup, a good tourism policy. It’s on my “to see” list for when I’ll travel to Asia!
