Yes, the Imsil N Cheese Festival, which marks its 10th anniversary this year, is full of life despite the rainy weather.

As you can see behind me, colorful chrysanthemums add style to the festival by making you feel the deepening autumn atmosphere.

Family visitors are leaving beautiful memories in front of the chrysanthemum garden.

The streets of the cheese theme park that comes up to the garden were full of savory cheese scents.

The Imsil N Cheese Festival, which runs for four days from today, marks its 10th anniversary this year.

It is an event to celebrate Father Chung Ji-hwan, who came to Imsil from Belgium, making cheese for the first time in our country.

As Korea's first cheese festival, the biggest attraction is that you can experience various cheeses.

You can increase 2,000m long string cheese yourself, taste 200kg of aged cheese, and experience almost everything related to cheese from cheese auctions and cheese fondue.

In addition, you can enjoy a variety of foods such as local food from 12 towns and villages and Imsil Korean beef.

You can also taste thorny thistle juice, one of Imsil's representative agricultural products.

Then let's listen to the stories of citizens who visited the festival for the holiday.

[Jin Ran-hee / Lee Seo-myeon, Wanju-gun, Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province: I came here to make good memories with my children, but it's a little sad because it rained, but it's so pretty that I think I can have fun.]

Autumn chrysanthemums, another pride of the Imsil N Cheese Festival, have also become more diverse than last year.

By increasing the proportion of colorful chrysanthemums that were well received to 23%, you can enjoy more than 10 million chrysanthemums and unique flower sculptures.

At night, fantastic LED nightscape lights will add light to the European garden for a spectacular view.

The festival will run until this Sunday.

This weekend, why don't you taste savory cheese and feel the autumn atmosphere with 10 million chrysanthemum flowers?
