Waemok Village Sunrise Festival (왜목마을 해넘이 해돋이 축제)

The Waemok Village Sunrise Festival takes place in Waemok Village in Dangjin-si, Chungcheongnam-do. Around 100,000 people visit the festival every year to see the simple and poetic sunrise. The village is one of the top three suprise viewing spots in Korea. Starting in the afternoon of December 31, various sunrise events will begin, including tourist singing contests, celebrity guest performances, a New Year’s countdown, and burning daljip (brushwood bonfire) to make a wish. When the new year begins, visitors can take in the sunrise and warm up with some tteokguk (sliced rice cake soup) at the end of the festival.
