Adults revist childhood, children are celebrated at National folk museum of Korea
어린이날 전통 및 현대 행사 민속박물관서 열려
May 5th is Children's Day in Korea.
Lee Unshin takes us to one of the many family-friendly festivals held throughout the nation.
A museum in Seoul, where the kids got to learn traditional games while taking a peak at their parent's childhood.
The National Folk Museum of Korea, in Seoul, displays arts and crafts that reflect the nation's history and culture.
But on Friday it attracted an unusual crowd; children.
I'm came here with my mom. We're going to have fun together.
For Children's Day, the museum held a 6-day festival, offering kids a chance to gain a sense of pride in their country's folk culture.
They learned how to play traditional games, while indulging in some good old-fashioned sweets -- the kind you would see in street stalls decades ago.
Some nostaligic outdoor activities are reborn through modern technology.
Like this one, where kids use their smartphones to chase the goblins of traditional Korean folklore.
This augmented reality game is my favorite at the event so far, and I love how I get to spend all day with my parents and my aunt.
Look at this little painting on my hand I did with my mom I really like it.
Now, just because it's Children's Day, doesn't mean adults can't enjoy themselves too. At this traditional playground, parents can travel back in time and play some of their favorite childhood games.
It's time for some family bonding, as the parents get goofy with their kids, participating in water-gun fights, and running a race wearing swimming fins to win a trophy.
This is an unusual Children's Day event and we're having so much fun together. The best part is that my daughter got a peek at my own childhood.
It's a national holiday celebrating children... but the museum gives grownups a chance to revisit their childhoods too, side-by-side with their kids.

Childrens Museum at the National Museum of Korea!
While looking for one of the large parks we have seen on blogs we happened to stumble upon the childrens museum at the National Museum of Korea. It was free and so we gave it a try. Totally awesome! The kids had a blast and learned a lot about Korean history, traditions, and culture.
There were tons of school kids there and at the end of the video you can see a group of girls screaming at something inside the play wall. Yah - that was Gaius. They cornered him in there because he was 귀엽다 (gui yeop da - cute). He decided to roar at them and they all reacted very - um - dramatically.

Day Trip from Seoul to DMZ, the Demilitarised Zone Between South Korea and North Korea
When visiting South Korea, one of the tourist things to do is to book a day trip from Seoul to the DMZ (Demilitarised Zone between South Korea and North Korea) or the JSA (Joint Security Area). Actually, the Demilitarised Zone between the two Koreas is the most militarised area in the world. I wanted to do the JSA tour but that one was already fully booked months in advance. So the DMZ tour includes a visit to Imjingak Park, the Dora Observatory (view the DMZ area and North Korea in the distance), the 3rd infiltration tunnel (built by North Korea to attack the south) and Dorasan Station.

History of the National Museum of Korea
On October 28, 2005, the NMK reopened in its new permanent home in Yongsan, on a site of 307,227 m² (building area: 45,438 m²). Yongsan, the geographic heart of Seoul, is backed by the expansive Mt. Namsan and fronted by the Hangang. Yongsan is also the true cultural center of Seoul, sitting just south of the five palaces of the Joseon Dynasty and the War Memorial, and north of the National Library and the Seoul Arts Center.
The NMK, boasting more extensive and convenient facilities than its predecessors, attracted more than 100,000 visitors in its first three days, reaching one million in attendance after 44 days, and ten million in about three and a half years. In 2009, the NMK attracted 2,730,204 visitors, which ranked as the highest attendance figure in Asia and 10th worldwide (according to the Art Newspaper).
Reborn as a cultural complex that all Koreans can enjoy, the NMK has updated its mission to not only to preserve and display relics, but also to host a variety of programs and cultural events in conjunction with the Children's Museum and permanent exhibitions. Beginning in 2008, the NMK offered free admission to all of its permanent exhibits, thereby enhancing the popularity of the museum and altering the perception that museums are for one-time visits only.
The NMK also reinforced its numerous exchange programs with overseas museums, holding special internationally themed exhibitions, such as The Glory of Persia (2008), Egypt, the Great Civilization: Pharaohs and Mummies (2009), Korean Museums: 100 Years in Remembrance (a 100th anniversary celebration of Korean Museums) (2009), and Gods, Heroes and Mortals: Art and Life in Ancient Greece (2010).
