Did you know there's a train that goes from Seoul to Jeongseon once every five days? In the morning, you can take the A-train (Arirang Train) from Cheongnyangni Station, and it takes about two hours to reach Jeongseon. For less than 25,000 won, I could watch the musical, visit the traditional market, have coffee, and dine at a famous restaurant (excluding transportation costs). Let me explain the route in detail below!
Day 1
06.02
A musical playing in Jeongseon won awards at an event often compared to the Cannes Film Festival in the performance world, and the tickets were only 5,000 won. When you buy a ticket, you get a receipt that can be used as 5,000 won in cash at the Jeongseon Traditional Market. In other words, it's like a free performance. Sometimes this musical is performed in Seoul, where tickets usually cost around 80,000 won.
