Line 1 · Songjeong Park StationA local Gwangsan-gu route distinct from the 1913 Market arrival guide, combining the park, lived-in Kkoburang lanes and tteokgalbi ingredient checks.
Line 1 · Nongseong StationApproach Balsan Village as a living neighborhood shaped by textile workers and regeneration, not merely as a mural backdrop. A bus transfer is practical.

TWO-STOP IDEAS
Give each place a distinct role instead of turning memory into background.
Namgwangju → Asia Culture Center
Read institutions and housing in Yangnim-dong, then meet current Asian art and civic memory at ACC.
Yangdong Market → Geumnamno 4-ga
Study trade and solidarity by day, then support local cinema with one actual screening.
Gwangju Songjeong → Yangdong Market
Read railway-linked redesign on arrival, then give a separate day to distribution and market community.
Uncheon / Hakdong·Jeungsimsa
Both require a slower pace but very different preparation. Give each its own half day.
