History
Yongma Land opened in 1980 as a humble, family-friendly amusement park. Yongma Land was a popular location for local families for the first decade after it opened. However, when Lotte World opened in 1989, people lost interest in this humble, neighborhood amusement park. The park has officially ceased operation in 2011. Though it is no longer operating as an amusement park, the old-school and unique dilapidated atmosphere continue to attract visitors from a niche market such as photographers, as well as professionals in the video production industries.
Information of Fee
The park is open to visitors at an entrance fee of KRW5,000 per person. The “profit” earned will be used to maintain a certain level of dilapidation in the park. The lights of the merry-go-round could be turned on at a standard charge of KRW 25,000 for about 10 minutes. However, if you’re lucky, the owner of the park keeper might switch it on for you for free.
