Abai Village

Abai Village is made by refugees of the Korean War, who came to south side of Korea and never returned home. As time passed by, people from other areas have settled down too, but 60% of residents are still from Hamgyeong Province. Now, its official name is called ”Cheongho-dong”, but still they call it “Abai Village”, which means “grandfather” in Hamgyeong dialect. This place is also famous for filming popular Korean drama “Autumn in my Heart”, and its famous Gaetbae is still operating to attract Japanese and Taiwanese tourists. Recently, it has gained more popularity and is attracting more visitors due to the filming of the popular television show "2 Days and 1 Night".
