Jeonggwan Museum, part of the Busan Museum system, announced that it will host a Children’s Day event titled “Museum Enchanted by Magic” on May 5.
Children’s Day began in 1923 when Bang Jeong-hwan (1899–1931), a member of the children’s welfare organization Saekdonghoe, designated May 1 as Children’s Day to foster a sense of national identity among children. After Korea’s liberation in 1945, the date was changed to May 5 and has been celebrated annually since.
This year’s Children’s Day event will feature magician Choi Ian, who rose to fame through the SBS global magic audition show The Magic Star. The program will include a magic show and balloon art performance designed for children.
