내용

Busan Metropolitan City (Mayor Park Heong-joon) announced that it will host “Deullak Nallak Day!” today (the 19th) starting at 1:00 p.m. at the first-floor grand auditorium, lobby, and City Hall Deullak Nallak.

This event has been organized to review the year’s achievements of Deullak Nallak’s representative specialized programs—“Let’s Play with English” and the “Creative Learning Center”—at the children’s cultural complex space Deullak Nallak.

“Deullak Nallak Day!” will feature the “Show & Tell” performance presentation for “Let’s Play with English,” the operation of experiential booths and an exhibition by the Creative Learning Center, and a Christmas event at City Hall Deullak Nallak.

The “Show & Tell” event, to be held at 2:00 p.m. in the first-floor grand auditorium of City Hall, will be attended by approximately 300 children and parents who participated in “Let’s Play with English” during the second half of 2025, and will offer a wide range of performances.

The program includes an elementary-level opening performance titled “Golden,” a “Speech Runway” in which children from four regional groups present three sentences per team while walking the runway like a fashion show using theme-appropriate costumes and props, a “Song & Chant” segment featuring group English songs and choreography by the children, presentations by participating daycare or kindergarten group classes, and a preschool-level closing performance titled “Mommy I Love You.”

“Show & Tell” is designed as a celebratory event where children can confidently showcase the skills they have developed through “Let’s Play with English” over the second half of the year.

Starting at 1:00 p.m., the lobby in front of the City Hall grand auditorium will host a variety of hands-on activities for children and parents to enjoy together, including a “Let’s Play with English” photo zone and instant photo booth, as well as experiential booths and an exhibition by the Creative Learning Center.

The “Let’s Play with English” photo zone and instant photo booth have been decorated to capture the full spirit of Christmas, allowing visitors to enjoy the festivities even more.

At the Creative Learning Center experiential booths, participants can enjoy 16 diverse hands-on programs related to creative science and creative arts. In addition, an exhibition space has been 마련 to display works created by children who participated in the Creative Learning Center programs in 2025, offering a glimpse into their sparkling imagination at a single glance.

In addition, as part of related events, experiential activities and a children’s musical titled “Christmas in a Fairy Tale” will be held at City Hall Deullak Nallak starting at 2:00 p.m., further enhancing the festive atmosphere.

Meanwhile, Deullak Nallak is a children’s cultural complex space developed across the city by utilizing idle spaces as a core facility of the 15-minute city initiative. It offers a wide range of content and programs that reflect local characteristics—such as immersive digital content and media art—providing a safe environment for children and parents to enjoy together.

Since launching as a pilot project in 2021, Busan Metropolitan City has been promoting the establishment of a total of 108 Deullak Nallak facilities across its 16 districts and counties as of the end of November 2025. Of these, 93 facilities have been completed and are currently in operation.

In particular, by evenly supporting high-quality programs such as “Let’s Play with English” and the Creative Learning Center, Deullak Nallak has established itself as a Busan-style family cultural space where children can learn through play and hands-on experiences. The city plans to expand the scope of support and offer an even wider variety of programs next year.

Kim Gwi-ok, Director General of the Youth and Industry-Academia Bureau of Busan Metropolitan City, stated, “We have prepared a special festival where visitors can experience, all in one place, the specialized programs that can only be found at Deullak Nallak,” adding, “In 2026, we will reach children across the city with even richer and more substantial Deullak Nallak programs.”
