It was built in 2002 in front of the Korea-Japan World Cup inside Jeonju Hanok Village.
Beautiful tiled roof (기와) with 3 entrance gates.
Korean roofs have curves and turn upwards at the corners
symbolise 'smile' and 'welcome'.
Big Drum Daego (대고)
We supposed to see and experience various Korean traditional culture like Pansori, traditional dances, classical music, traditional wedding ceremony and performances here.
But there's nobody inside this hall, and we didn't know how to go to other halls. Then we just went out and took some photos...

Colorful decorated stones sitting on stairs...

Nambu Traditional Market (전주 남부시장)
Nambu market means "South market".
It's located next to Jeonju Hanok Village, near to Pungnammun Gate. It took about 8-10 minutes walk from Jeonju Hanok Village Hotel to Nambu Market.

Come out from hotel to main road, you'll find few lovely hanbok stores
selling Traditional hanbok, Modern hanbok and kid's hanbok.

Actually, I'm not sure whether they're selling cloth material for Hanbok
or they also provide custom-made service...

As you can see, they only displaying few hanboks in their stores.
