Saturday Gugak Fairy Tale 2026: Dates, 20,000-Won Tickets, and Why Parents Need One Too

Bottom line: If you want to see traditional Korean music with a child on a November Saturday afternoon, head to "Saturday Gugak Fairy Tale" (토요국악동화) at the Pungnyu Sarangbang hall of the National Gugak Center in Seoul. The remaining shows are at 2:00 PM on November 14, 21 and 28, and every seat costs 20,000 won.
If you didn't know: "Every seat 20,000 won" does not just mean the child's seat. Any accompanying adult also needs a paid ticket to sit in. Bring money for only one child's ticket and you will have to pay another 20,000 won on the spot for the adult. Two adults and one child need three tickets — 60,000 won in total.

The show name, dates, time, price, venue and age limit are taken directly from the National Gugak Center's official listing as compiled by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's performance information page. That page does not list an online booking procedure or ticket vendor, so the most reliable way to confirm seat availability and how to book is to call 02-580-3300 before the show. The official notice also states the program can change at the organizer's discretion. This was checked on the 2026-11-09 screen of this performance's detail page on the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's performance information site (mcst.go.kr).
