On October 3, 1974, the Korean Folk Village opened in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do.

Located at 90 Folk Village Road, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do, the Korean Folk Village is a comprehensive Tourist destination with the theme of traditional culture built to preserve and transfer our folk culture and to use it as a Tourist resource and field-training educational facility.

The Korean Folk Village reproduces the customs and lifestyle of the late Joseon Dynasty by combining houses of 99 kan yangban houses, intangible cultural assets such as pungmul nori, tightrope walking, and folk crafts such as bamboo work, embroidery, and knots.
