The drone light show at Sapgyoho Tourist Area has resumed.

Following the spring season from May to June, the show will take place every Saturday from September 12 to October 12 at 8 PM.

Starting at 7 PM, enjoy cultural and artistic performances, leading up to the drone show at 8 PM, followed by another performance at 8:10 PM.

Before the show, from 1 PM to 6 PM, a drone experience booth will be operated in collaboration with Shinsung University.

Saturdays at Sapgyoho Tourist Area offer a unique day filled with drone experiences and performances.

Many visitors arrive around 2 PM for a trip to Dangjin.

Enjoy time with seagulls along the waterfront, savor delicious meals at the restaurant area adjacent to the expansive sea park, and spread out picnic mats on the lawn for a delightful outing.

In addition to the drone show, there are plenty of activities to enjoy at Sapgyoho Tourist Area.

September, where the blue sky meets the sea, is particularly refreshing.

The drone show takes place at the entrance of the spacious Sapgyo Sea Park, which borders the sea.

Performances will unfold at the outdoor stage adjacent to the naval park before and after the drone show, culminating in a display of 2,000 drones.

To prepare for the 8 PM show, around 2 PM, over 2,000 drones will settle above the lawn.

Many are searching for the best spots to view the drone show.

Based on experience, almost every location in Sapgyo Sea Park offers a great view.

Arriving a bit early allows for the drone experience.

During the drone show period, a drone experience booth will be available from 1 PM to 6 PM, featuring a drone simulator in partnership with Shinsung University's Future Mobility Department.

Anyone interested in drones is welcome to visit Dangjin and enjoy the early experience.

Participants of all ages can join, with each experience lasting about 20 minutes.

The process is simple: registration, virtual simulation, and then actual drone soccer or drone basketball.

Around ten tents are set up, and participants move in sequence to experience the activities.

While most participants are children, there are occasionally adults as well.

I also had my first experience operating a drone among the kids.

The drone simulator allows users to practice controlling the drone.

The controls include rotation, ascent, descent, left turn, right turn, left move, right move, forward, and backward, totaling eight directional keys.

Though it seems simple, actual experience is quite different.

Managing all eight directional changes with both hands requires quick reflexes, leading to some confusion and repeated stops.

After getting a bit more accustomed, I began to control the drone directly.

The drone experience booth consists of three sections: the drone simulator, drone basketball, and drone soccer.

While a claw machine was mentioned, it wasn't visible on the day of my visit.

The drone control experience allows participants to operate small drones used in drone soccer.

The safe space design for potential collisions ensures a relaxed and enjoyable experience.

Instructions are clear and detailed, tailored to the participants' level.

However, maneuvering the drone accurately through the target space while still mastering the controls was challenging.

A few trial-and-error attempts are essential, but the assistance from university students made it a success.

For those familiar with gaming or driving, controlling a drone becomes much easier.

From September 12 to October 17, every Saturday, the Dangjin Sapgyoho Drone Light Show will take place, along with the drone experience booth at Sapgyoho Tourist Area.

You can go from watching drones to directly controlling them.

If you want to learn about drones, visit Dangjin a bit earlier to enjoy the drone experience.

Following the cultural and artistic performances at 7 PM, the drone light show will spectacularly begin at 8 PM.

Every moment, from the moment 2,000 drones take to the sky until they land, is magical.

Enjoy a special autumn with the Dangjin Sapgyoho Drone Light Show.
