Paengichigi

Paengichigi (Korean: 팽이치기) is a traditional Korean game primarily played during the winter and is enjoyed by people of all ages. Paengichigi is played by using a spinning top and a stick with a long string. The spinning tops are wound up with twine and then let go. Players must keep hitting the spinning top with the string tuck with the stick to make it rotate for as long as possible.

One of the popular locations to experience traditional games like paengichigi is Namsangol Hanok Village.
