Gangneung Central·Seongnam Market : Gangneung Danoje Festival

The Danoje Festival is a big holiday in Gangneung. Held on the occasion of Dano, the Gangneung Danoje Festival is a human drama for communication between God and nature as well as coexistence between human and nature, and among ourselves.

The festival took place during the Japanese colonial rule and left paramount records when Japan committed historical and cultural invasion. The record itself remained in existence even during the Korean War. To escape the eyes of oppressors, the festival was held on a small scale at the corner of the Jungang market, Namdaecheon stream, or Seongnam-dong by the elderly and female shamans.

Through historical reach, the Gangneung Danoje Festival has been passed down quite well to restore its original form. In November 2005, it was designated as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, as it is visited by more than a million tourists every year, and has become a cultural asset to be preserved.

Its shape resembles tadpole, thus, it inherited the name tadpole noodle. Its savory taste and soft texture makes it easy to digest and chew for both the children and the elderly. Back in the days people used to eat this food as a main dish in Gangwon-do. Gangwon-do’s representative grain of potatoes and corn that grow well in mountainous terrain has developed diverse dishes, including a substantial meal with tadpole noodle, which is also good for health due to its high calorie content and high fiber content.
