Yuk Young-soo's restored birthplace is at 113-6 Hyangsu-gil, Okcheon, Chungbuk. Listed visiting hours are 09:00–17:30, with closure on Mondays, January 1 and the Lunar New Year and Chuseok holidays. The KTO official page marked as last revised November 21, 2025 shows six accessible parking spaces, but states they are about 400 m from the main entrance. The approach is described as wide enough for wheelchairs, although parts have coir mats laid over soil, which may change condition after rain or snow. One manual wheelchair is listed for loan at the ticket counter, and an accessible restroom is marked. Allow time for the 400-m approach rather than assuming the designated parking is at the entrance.
