Over time, more and more people are learning about Halloween, and festivals and parties are taking place.

Where in Korea can you have a great Halloween? That’s why I’m writing this article. Let’s dive into the best places to enjoy Halloween in Seoul, Busan, and Daegu, South Korea.

Although Everland is located in Gyeonggi-do, we chose Everland Blood City Halloween Festival as the top place to enjoy Halloween in 2022. Because this year’s Blood City was designed and directed by an Emmy Award-winning art director for Squid Game, Kyungsun Chae. In Blood City, you will feel like you are the protagonist of a horror movie with your friends. Here is more about the Everland Blood City Festival 2022.

TIP: There are so many performances and photo zones, but we picked the performance Crazy Zombie Hunt as the best one and Clean of the Dead Laundry as the best photo spot.
