About Byeokgolje ssangnyongnori
Byeokgolje ssangnyongnori (Korean: 벽골제 쌍룡놀이; Hanja: 碧骨堤 雙龍놀이) is a major event of the Byeokgol Cultural Festival held annually in mid-October (September 9 on the lunar calendar). It is a folk game that takes place in Byeokgolje (a reservoir during the Baekje period) in Buryang-myeon, Gimje, South Korea. It is also held in honour of the spirit of Danyanangja, who became a sacrifice to protect the Byeokgolje festival in Yonggol Village, Yonggol-ri, Buryang-myeon, Gimje, Jeollabuk-do on September 9 of the lunar calendar.
