Those instruments make a fantastic music and many people could attend in the parade of Pungmul in this festival.
You can not only enjoy Pungmul parade, but you can also experience a lot of things such as making ricecake in traditional way, learning Korean manners, watching how silkworms make silk, making potteries and Korean masks, and so on.
You may think this is a place only to enjoy Korean culture, however, it's not true.
There are some performances that combined Korean and Western culture.
For example, you can see the performances such as playing western song with Korean instruments, dancing in western style with Korean songs.
