The 4th Treasure Hunt Festival, "Find the Gold Bar!," will be held for two days, from November 7 to 8, 2026, in the Somri Village area of Inhwa-dong, Iksan-si, North Jeolla Province. Somri Village, a modern historical and cultural village, will be transformed into a stage for an AR treasure hunt game. Visitors can use smartphone maps to find clues hidden throughout the alleys, collect gold bar cards, and participate in a prize drawing. During the festival, various participatory programs will be held, including the “Somri Boutique,” where visitors can try on 1920s-era period costumes; the “Somri Stamp Tour,” which takes participants to key locations; and the “Lucky King” event. In addition, there will be street performances, a marching parade, the “Iri-o Shop” flea market, jewelry crafting and art workshops, a small-scale art fair, a children’s playground, and survival challenges—offering attractions and activities for people of all ages. A “Win-Win Food Market,” featuring participation from the merchants’ associations of the Old Market and Nambu Market near the festival grounds, will also be held.
