Yongma Land "From Atlas Obscura: There is a small abandoned theme park in Seoul, South Korea, with a quieted carousel, bleached-out images of ’80s pop icons, and “dodgem” cars that have long-since quit dodging. But unlike most amusement parks that have gone idle, this one invites the public to share in its slow crumble.

Yongma Land was built in 1980, and had a fairly solid run as a small family-oriented amusement park. By 2011 tastes had moved on, and with attendance dwindling it closed down. Despite stories of a haunting or two, the root of its demise was likely just a matter of profit, when the construction of several, much larger and better located, theme parks lured the thrill-seekers away.

Now in the hands of an enterprising local businessman, the old Yongma Land is open again, but this time to revel in the poignant charm of its decay. For a small charge of 10,000 won per adult (about $9, a bit more for professionals) and 5,000 won per child, visitors are free to roam the old rides, no fence-jumping needed. And for 30,000 won, the owner will turn on the lights of the ghostly merry-go-round for you after 8:00 pm.

The fading colors and jumbled figures have proven attractive for musicians and other artists too, inspiring several K-pop videos (most notably Crayon Pop’s “Bar Bar Bar” video) and other photo shoots. With piles of dodgem (or bumper) cars, a rusting octopus ride, a Viking ship, and a displaced clown-motif roller coaster, there is still plenty of carney magic to inspire even amateur photographers."

Crinkley Bottom/Blobbyland "A series of theme parks inspired by the fictional village from the tv show Noel's House Party to capitalize on the popularity of Mr Blobby. The first park, located in Cricket St Thomas in Somerset, was based around an existing wildlife park and the Cricket House country estate. The Crinkley Bottom park was based around Mr Blobby with a Blobby-themed house called "Dunblobbin" being the main attraction. After Noel Edmonds backed out of the park, the park was rebranded, though it didn't last long until it was closed down and sealed off in 1997. In the 2000s, urban explorers rediscovered the abandoned Dunblobbin' house which led to more people returning to Cricket St Thomas to see it. The owners of the land initially blocked off the site, eventually demolishing Dunblobbin' in 2014 due to vandalism and the holding of illegal raves.

Another locale was in Morecambe, Lancashire. The Morecambe council wanted something to boost tourism so they signed a deal with Noel Edmonds to build a Blobby theme park. Poor planning and negligence resulted in the ruin of the town's main natural park, and even more so, the ruin of tourism in Morecambe altogether. More info on this park can be found in this video"

Dream Vacation

A dream vacation to South Korea, primarily Seoul, would involve visiting iconic BTS locations such as Hyangho Beach, Itaewon & Hannam-dong, Big Hit Entertainment Building, K-Star Road, Yongma Land, Dae Jang Geum Park, and BTS-related cafes and restaurants.

The itinerary includes exploring Seoul, visiting the popular neighborhoods of Itaewon and Hannam-dong, stopping at the BTS entertainment company's headquarters (now known as HYBE), and walking along K-Star Road in Gangnam, where you can spot the famous BTS bear statue and K-pop related stores and cafes.

Music video locations include Yongma Land, an abandoned amusement park where BTS filmed parts of their "Love Yourself: Highlight Reel" and other K-pop videos, and Dae Jang Geum Park, a historical theme park where BTS filmed their "Hwa Yang Yeon Hwa on Stage: Epilogue" concert poster.

BTS-related cafes and restaurants include The Min's, owned by Suga's brother, where you can try traditional Korean dishes, and Zapangi Café, a popular Instagram spot with unique drinks and desserts.

Another highlight of the trip is visiting Busan, Jimin and Jungkook's hometown, where you can explore the beaches and Jimin's father's café (Magnate Café). Attending a BTS-themed event or exhibit, such as the BTS Pop-Up stores and the HYBE Insight Museum, is also recommended.

Ending on a high note, aligning your visit with a BTS concert or fan meeting in Seoul would be the ultimate highlight of the trip. This vacation offers an immersive experience of exploring South Korea's culture, history, and vibrant city life while following in the footsteps of BTS.
