About the festival
Guardians of Jinju is a mission tour around Jinjuseong Fortress and the Historic Victory Culture Park. Using a web platform with no app to install, participants move between designated spots and complete missions. There are three episodes: a story-driven mission based on historic events at the fortress, a mystery featuring three characters and a fantasy-themed mission offered in Korean and English. Collect clues to complete a final sentence. Linked with the Jinju Namgang Lantern Festival, it runs at night against the illuminated fortress and floating lanterns. Start at the lawn inside Gongbukmun Gate and receive a souvenir when you finish.
