At Nostalgic Dalgona, visitors can make and eat dalgona, a snack that has become world-famous as it frequently appears in Korean content such as drama series like Netflix's Squid Game and entertainment shows. The recipe requires using a ladle and heat to dissolve sugar mixed with a small amount of baking soda. Once dissolved, pour out the caramel-like mix onto a tray, then stamp the surface with a cookie cutter of a preferred shape, such as heart, animal figure, or umbrella. The process of tearing off the edges along the pattern like from the scene in Squid Game can be quite a challenge and fun at the same time.

Haenggung-dong Mural Village (행궁동 벽화마을)

Suwon’s Haenggung-dong is the name for 12 neighborhoods, including Jangan-dong and Sinpung-dong, in the Hwaseong Fortress area. It was the most bustling place in Suwon from when the Hwaseong Fortress was built 220 years ago until just a few decades ago. However, with Hwaseong Fortress being designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, time seems to have stopped due to strict development regulations. In the meantime, residents, civic groups, and artists came together to paint murals in effort to make the area become more alive. Due to their efforts, the region has now emerged as a tourist attraction visited by as many people as Hwaseong Fortress.

The Haenggung-dong comprises various alleys connected depending on their characteristics, including the Mural Village, Workshop Street, Suwon Chicken Street, and Jidong Market. The Mural Village is divided into six alleyways by theme, including the Haengbokha (Happy) Road, Saranghada (Love) Road, Nuneuroganeun (to Snow) Road, Cheoeumachim (First Morning) Road, Romance Road, and Dwiroganeun (Backward) Road. A photo zone has been set up in front of the mural, and not only the mural but also the walls, roof, and fence are filled with various sculptures and paintings. Many pretty workshops and cafés nearby are also interesting to look around.

◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charm - TV series "Lovely Runner"
Haenggung-dong Mural Village sets the scene where Sol and Sun-jae walked to school together. It is also where the memorable scene was filmed of Sol dashingly pushing a flustered Sun-jae against the wall. As you stroll along the low stone walls adorned with murals, it’s easy to imagine the couple’s school-day moments, adding a nostalgic charm to your walk.
