TtoBom Myeoncheon: A New Spring Festival Awakens in Dangjin

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This April, Dangjin in Chungcheongnam-do is set to welcome visitors to its inaugural major cultural and tourism event: TtoBom Myeoncheon.

 

Hosted at the historic Myeoncheon Eupseong fortress, the festival will take place over two days, April 5–6, promising an immersive experience that fuses local traditions with diverse artistic expressions.

 

Aptly named "TtoBom Myeoncheon," meaning "spring again in Myeoncheon," the event symbolizes renewal and cultural revival, with aspirations to become a staple in Dangjin’s festival calendar.

This fresh approach ensures a dynamic environment where tradition meets contemporary creativity.

 

Unlike conventional local events, TtoBom Myeoncheon boasts an exceptional lineup of musicians, street performers, and interactive programs, making it a must-visit occasion for both locals and tourists.

Star-Studded Musical Lineup

 

 

 

 

Music lovers will find much to enjoy, as the festival hosts an impressive roster of performers across two days.

 

On April 5, the event opens with a unique collaboration between Bada, the beloved former S.E.S. member, and acclaimed guitarist Jo Eung-min.

 

Other notable acts gracing the stage that day include the jazz ensemble ZIP4, mixed rock group Springs, the Brazilian-inspired RUST Trio, jazz vocalist Moon Mihyang Trio, and talented pianists Ko Heean and Heo Daewook.

 

April 6 continues the musical excitement with performances by renowned indie-folk artist 10CM, ska and reggae fusion band Kingston Rudieska, award-winning group Bando, and the energetic alternative rock act Yangchigi Boy Scouts.

 

This eclectic lineup ensures that festivalgoers will experience a broad spectrum of musical styles, making for a vibrant and engaging atmosphere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Street Performances and Interactive Art

 

 

 

 

 

Beyond the main stage, TtoBom Myeoncheon transforms the historic fortress into a living, breathing theater.

 

Ten street performance groups will captivate audiences with original works, blending storytelling, music, and movement.

 

Highlights include Haewon, a performance that merges circus arts with elements of traditional shamanism, From Osam, which delivers an environmental message through creative staging, and Freedom of Two Feet, a mobile and interactive show that encourages audience participation.

 

A particular highlight is the Alice Project parade, an inventive reimagining of the classic Alice in Wonderland, which will delight attendees on both festival days at 2:30 p.m.

 

The parade will be accompanied by a lively street jazz performance from ZIP4, adding to the festival’s immersive charm.
