About
The Gimpo Marine Corps Culture Festival in Daemyeong Port is a festival honoring the spirit and tradition of the Marine Corps, drawing on the regional character of the 2nd Marine Division's base area. Programs include Marine Corps equipment displays, military band and honor guard performances, a steel muscle competition, dog tag and octagonal cap making, and more, creating a space where citizens can see, feel, and engage with Marine Corps culture firsthand. At the rooftop plaza of the seafood direct sales market, 'Sunset Yajang' (sunset night market) is also held, where visitors can enjoy seasonal seafood, local food, and self-service barbecue from Gimpo. As sunset falls over Daemyeong Port, a night market atmosphere of food stalls and busking continues. This special event brings together two themes in one place — Marine Corps culture by day and the sunset scenery with local food by night.
