Welcome to Dongmakgol Village in Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do, is well known as the filming location of director Park Kwang-hyun's film 'Welcome to Dongmakgol.' The film, which depicts the confrontation and reconciliation between South Korean soldiers, North Korean soldiers, and allied forces, drew 8 million viewers nationwide and won awards including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress at prestigious domestic and international film festivals. Due to the aftermath of its box office success, more than 100,000 tourists visit this place annually after the film's release. Through the well-preserved filming location, including Dongmak Wind Cave, the entrance of an old coal mine, Mr. Kim's house, the 500-year-old zelkova tree that was a place of harmony transcending ideology between South Korean soldiers, North Korean soldiers, and residents, and the U.S. fighter plane that crashed in Dongmakgol, each scene of the film vividly comes back to mind. Various tourist attractions such as Yeongwol Coal Mine Culture Village, Pyeongchang Rock Park, and Baengnyong Cave are nearby.
