Stepping into the world of "Goblin" and immersing yourself in the healing beauty of endless wheat fields. Located at Haewon Farm in the vast barley fields of Gochang, this expansive 300,000-pyeong farm is one of Korea’s largest. In spring, you can see Korea’s largest green wheat field, while in autumn, you’ll be greeted by beautiful buckwheat flower seas.

Held annually from late April to early May in Gochang, the land of barley, the Gochang Green Wheat Field Festival offers a breathtaking expanse of green wheat fields that not only heals the soul but also captures the essence of spring.

The farm gained popularity after transforming into a tourist destination, becoming a favorite spot for visitors and photographers. It has also attracted attention for being the filming location of numerous TV dramas, movies, and commercials—especially gaining fame after the hit drama “Goblin” was filmed here.

Haewon Farm also hosts various festivals and events during the peak seasons of its main crops—barley and buckwheat—such as the Green Wheat Field Festival and the Buckwheat Flower Festival. To serve visitors, the farm operates a restaurant serving meals made with barley and buckwheat, along with shops selling tea, drinks, snacks, agricultural products, and accommodation facilities.

This year’s festival also features two themed routes based on the story of "Goblin" and its film and TV shooting locations, offering a variety of activities including wheat field walks, barley food making, carriage rides through green wheat fields, traditional games, hanbok (traditional clothing) experiences, and barley coffee tastings.
