Jeonju was once a publishing city
Beyond hanok houses and famous food, Jeonju has a rich history of printed books. Wanpanbon Cultural Center opened in 2011 to preserve this legacy. Displays cover Korean-language classic novels, historical works and practical texts associated with Jeonju and the former Jeolla provincial administration.
From carved block to paper
The city tourism page lists woodblock printing, traditional hanji postcard making and old-style bookmaking activities. Published example fees are KRW 4,000 for basic printing and KRW 10,000 for hanji postcards. They are not a guarantee of live availability or unchanged prices; group sessions need prior arrangements.
