There will be a trash can present in which you can throw away your written down bad memories of 2018 and a golden piggy bank in which you can save your written down New Year’s resolutions. Complimentary hot tea and eomuk (fish cake) will be served at service booths.
How to get there: Nampo Station (Metro line 1), Exit 7. Walk about 10 minutes and find the escalator leading to Yongdusan Park on your right.
