Seoul’s Summer Vibes： Hangang River Festival Finale at Ttukseom

On this hot early summer Sunday afternoon, I took a leisurely walk through Ttukseom Hangang Park, capturing the vibrant atmosphere of the final day of the 2025 Sium Sium Hangang Triathlon Festival. 🌊 About the Festival The Sium Sium Hangang Triathlon Festival is a unique, non-competitive event where participants can swim, cycle, and run at their own pace. Held over three days, the festival offers various activities, including water slides, traditional Korean games, and cultural performances, making it a perfect weekend getaway for families and friends. 🚶 My Walk Experience As I strolled along the riverside, I witnessed people of all ages enjoying the festivities—some participating in the triathlon, others relaxing under the shade, and children playing in the water zones. The park was alive with music, laughter, and the spirit of community. This video captures the essence of Seoul’s summer festivities and the joy of outdoor activities along the Han River. Join me in experiencing the lively scenes and the beautiful riverside views. 📍 Festival Details • Dates: May 30 – June 1, 2025 • Location: Ttukseom Hangang Park, Seoul • Website: https://www.sium-sium.com/ 🤼♂️ At the beginning of this video, you’ll see a special moment featuring a Ssireum (Korean traditional wrestling) demonstration performed by a local middle school team. Ssireum is Korea’s traditional form of wrestling, where two opponents use strength and technique to bring each other down, often while gripping a cloth belt called a satba. It’s a symbol of discipline, sportsmanship, and cultural heritage, and is commonly showcased during festivals or public events. This rare glimpse into Korean youth sports adds a unique local charm before we begin today’s riverside walk. Thank you for watching!
