๐ Essential Packing Checklist

๐ก Pro-Tips You'll Regret Missing for This Epic Festival
Okay, here come the real pro-tips!
Just knowing these will help you secure a prime spot much more easily than others.
๐ก Tip #1: Public Transportation is a Must, Not a Choice!
The Gwanghwamun area will be 100% closed to traffic on that day.
Don't even think about driving. The fastest and most reliable way is to take Subway Line 5 to Gwanghwamun Station or use a nearby station and walk.
⚠️ Warning: Arrive at least 3-4 hours early!
If you want a good spot, you need to hurry more than you can imagine.
As it's a legendary event, a huge crowd from home and abroad will gather.
If you arrive leisurely, you might not even be able to see the stage screens.
⭐ Premium Tip: The Best Spots Are Elsewhere!
Right in front of the stage isn't always the best.
In fact, places like the steps of the Sejong Center for the Performing Arts or the area in front of the KT building can be prime spots for viewing the entire stage and media facade together.
Try to pick a spot considering convenience, like access to restrooms!
August 14, 2025, the eve of the 80th Liberation Day!
It will be more than just watching a performance; it will be a historic moment
where you can feel a swelling pride in being a citizen of the Republic of Korea.
I hope you remember the tips I shared today
and make wonderful, lifelong memories!
