The entrance to the Punghyang Munhwa-gwan parking lot is off the main road (Pilmun-daero / 필문대로), right next to the Punghyang-ji branch of Nonghyeop Bank (광주농협 풍향지점). You can enter directly off the street OR via the elementary school drop-off road next to the GNUE main gate. DO NOT DRIVE INTO THE CAMPUS; the campus road does not connect to the venue parking lot except through the elementary school entrance.

조선대학교에서 방면에서 올때 : 교육대학교 후문으로 바로 들어가주세요

* The GNUE school festival is happening on campus Thursday (10/10) and Friday (10/11) starting around 6 p.m. Feel free to stop by--it's a free, entertaining way to spend an evening! You'll find the festival just inside the GNUE front gate, on the first athletic field (#23 on the map above). Our university's performance clubs will be appearing on stage throughout the event, and celebrity guests YounToven (윤토벤, a "ballad" singer) and Giriboy (기리보이, a rapper) will perform at 9 p.m. each evening (I'm not sure which one is on Thursday and which is on Friday, though). I recommend bringing some cash (KRW) for snacks and/or games at booths (open until 11:00 p.m.) run by various majors and clubs. Thursday schedule (Korean) / Friday schedule (Korean)
