Families completing the missions receive a completion medal from the festival.

Integrative medicine, which links the strengths of Korea’s traditional medicine and Western medicine, is cutting-edge convergent medicine that provides optimal services for patients in most fields, except surgery and emergency medicine.
Traditional Korean treatments and modern medical treatments can deliver superior results compared to stand-alone therapies when applied in a patient-centered, multidisciplinary, and integrative manner. This is especially important for patients with intractable diseases such as cancer, severe chronic pain caused by aging and degenerative changes, and systemic symptoms resulting from recurrent inflammation and metabolic disorders. In such cases, integrative medicine represents a new paradigm that seeks not only physical health but also holistic recovery.
THE WELL SAEM HOSPITAL OF KOREAN MEDICINE pursues this integrative medicine, supporting patients’ faster recovery while also promoting the excellence of the Korean healthcare system worldwide, thereby aiming to create a pain-free, healthy world for all.

Though Ononsa, which was a guesthouse in Gwacheon, was constructed in the 27th year of King Injo's reign in the Joseon dynasty (1649), the name, "Ononsa," was given to this area during the reign of King Jeongjo. On February 11, 1790 during his royal procession to the tomb of his father, Crown Prince Sado, stayed at an inn in Gwacheon and, as he felt that it "has nice views and provides a comfortable stay," he bestowed upon the place plaques that he wrote himself - "Ononsa" to Seoheon and "Burimheon," which was the old nickname of Gwacheon, to Dongheon. This is how this place began to be called Ononsa.

It was designated as a Tangible Cultural Heritage of Gyeonggi-do on June 2, 1980, and it was restored on December 2, 1986 after being torn down.
