Twin Tunnel is a theme park of light and characters, created by transforming an abandoned Gyeongbu Line railway tunnel. Inside, nearly 100 million lights illuminate the space, filling it with countless photo zones. The tunnel is divided into 10 different themed sections, each offering unique experiences. The Twin Tunnel was originally a railway tunnel built under the order of King Gojong during the late Joseon Dynasty and was once used by trains. Although no longer in use, the tunnel has long been shrouded in mystery, with local legends of ghostly lights appearing during the Japanese colonial era and stories of people finding glowing stones that brought them great fortune. These mystical tales of light have now been combined with creative characters to form a unique theme park. The tunnel maintains a constant temperature year-round, making it pleasantly cool in summer and warm in winter.
