A special place connected to Daejeon Station,
An indoor tourist spot perfect for enjoying with kids

It was a great indoor place to visit lightly with kids in Daejeon, but
there were definitely some disappointing aspects too.

Daejeon Kumdori House is
directly connected to the underground passage

It's about a 7-minute walk from Daejeon Station.
After exiting the ticket gate at Daejeon Station and heading down to the underground passage,
you'll find clear signs everywhere,
making it easy to find your way.
Even on rainy or hot days,
the ability to travel entirely indoors was a huge plus.
Especially for first-time visitors to Daejeon

making its accessibility truly excellent.
2. Parking Guide
There's no dedicated parking lot.
You'll need to park in nearby alleyways.

1F: Kumssi Lounge (Goods Shop)
The very first thing I encountered upon entering was
the Kumssi Lounge (Goods Shop).
Here, you can find a variety of merchandise featuring the Kumssi Family,
the adorable symbols of Daejeon.
Dolls, stationery, accessories, and more —
all sorts of cute items were on display.
But what really caught my eye was
the Kumdori Ramyeon!
With cute Kumdori characters on the ramyeon packaging,
it's absolutely perfect as a souvenir.
You can also find Kumdori Ramyeon at GS convenience stores.
There are also photo zones set up throughout,
making it great for taking pictures with kids.
On the stairs leading up to the second floor,
the Kkumssi Family Song (or was it?) was playing along with a video.
We are Kkumssi, Kkumssi Family~♪♬
2nd Floor – VR Drive Tour & Photo Zone
On the second floor, we were able to enjoy the interactive
VR Drive experience.
It's a VR drive tour that kids are sure to love!
You sit in a chair, put on VR goggles,
and get to experience traveling through Daejeon.
The vivid screen made it feel like you were actually driving
through downtown Daejeon,
and the kids were absolutely amazed!
Plus, the second floor also had a variety of photo zones set up.
3rd Floor – Media Art Room
This is a space where you can experience Daejeon's iconic tourist attractions
through media art.
Through large screens and wall projections,
you'll feel like you're taking a grand tour of Daejeon.
When you think of Daejeon, famous attractions like the Expo Hanbit Tower, Daejeon Citizen Observatory, O-World,
Yuseong Hot Springs, Jangtaesan Recreational Forest, and Daecheong Lake unfold before your eyes in stunning videos.
It's also perfect for enjoying with kids.
You'll discover hidden gems you never knew existed in Daejeon,
as it even introduces lesser-known, hidden travel spots.
It's fantastic for inspiring future travel plans!
After the viewing,
the adjacent corridor mentioned floors 5-7 (5th floor Kkumteul Promotion Hall, 6th floor Foot Bath, 7th floor Cafe), but
in reality, only up to the 3rd floor was accessible.
The sign indicated you could take the elevator or stairs from the 3rd floor
to the upper levels, but
in reality, the elevator doors were closed
and we couldn't go up any further.
