Daejeon National Cemetery's ‘Sam-Sam-O-O By Bus’ is a guided remembrance and history programme using a 45-seat educational bus. It visits the memorial tower, main graves and related facilities with a guide. All ages may apply as individuals or groups of fewer than ten. Up to 40 participants can join each session, and an outing may be cancelled if fewer than five people register.
The published 2026 season runs from March through November, on the second Thursday and fourth Friday of each month, from 15:00 to 16:00. November's dates are Thursday November 12 and Friday November 27. Use the official cemetery programme page to open the Naver application form for your chosen date and apply at least two days beforehand. On-site applications are not accepted. Enquiries: 042-820-7063.
Meet outside the Visitors' Service Office before 15:00, as the bus departs on time. The approximately hour-long route includes paying respects at the memorial tower and guided visits to the main cemetery areas. Rain or other official ceremonies may change the route or schedule.
The ‘fewer than ten’ rule applies to the applying group, whereas 40 is the total per-session limit. The use of a 45-seat bus does not establish 45 available spaces. Fees, remaining availability and individual approval have not been established by this article. Families should also plan respectful conduct and their return journey.
