Hallyu fans continue to visit here because of the excitement of viewing the set and experiencing royal costumes.
Background
Built in 2005,[1] the site comprises a total area of 2,500,000m2.[2] out of which actual sets take up 165,000 m2,[3] The complex features permanent sets imitating buildings from the Samguk, Goryeo and Joseon periods, and it functions as an interactive center for hallyu.[4] Its name MBC Dramia was created from the words "drama" and "utopia". Historical drama series like Moon Embracing the Sun, Dong Yi and Queen Seondeok were shot there.[5]
The complex was opened to visitors and tourists on June 21, 2011 for the first time.[3] Recently in 2015, it was renamed to its current name Yongin Daejanggeum Park, based on the titular character of MBC's 2003 historical drama Dae Jang Geum, for promotional reasons.[6]
