The Imsil N Cheese Festival commemorates Father Ji Jeong-hwan, who came to Imsil for missionary work in 1967 and, starting with two goats, eventually produced Korea's first cheese after numerous trials, errors, and hardships with the village youth. Held annually in early October at Imsil Cheese Theme Park, it is a representative cultural tourism festival of Korea enjoyed by Imsil citizens and visitors, continually developing to revitalize the local economy and advance the cheese industry.
