Walkerhill Hotels & Resorts’ (General Manager Hyun Mong Joo, hereinafter referred to as Walkerhill) signature cultural event, the Park Concert, which has consistently sold out and garnered widespread love, returns with an even deeper and more romantic performance, featuring a 50-member orchestra led by renowned Korean conductor Choi Young-sun.
The 3rd Walkerhill Park Concert will be held on two dates, October 6th and 20th, at Forest Park, an outdoor picnic area with breathtaking views of Mt. Achasan and the Han River. This year’s theme, The Serenade, will capture the full spectrum of love’s emotions—from fluttering excitement and passionate intensity to heart-wrenching sorrow. These universal stories of love will be brought to life through a blend of popular movie soundtracks and classical music, creating a magical musical fairytale.
Iconic songs from romantic films such as Romeo and Juliet, Love Actually, About Time, and Once will be performed by the grand orchestra. Saxophonist Cho Se-hyung, along with musical actors Lee Choong-joo and Kim Soo, will grace the stage, enriching the event with their soulful voices and refined serenades. Walkerhill will further elevate the romantic atmosphere of the autumn forest, adorned with vibrant fall foliage, by offering a variety of programs and food options. Each concert attendee will receive a bottle of wine and a charcuterie board featuring a Jambon-beurre sandwich from Salt House, seasonal fruits, crackers, and more.
