About
Imsil Cheese Village is the home of Korean cheese. In 1966, Father Didier t'Serstevens (Korean name: Ji Jeong-hwan), a Belgian priest, brought two mountain goats to the village and started making cheese. He worked day and night with the locals to make the cheese that has earned its current reputation. Imsil Cheese Village runs experience programs such as mozzarella cheese making and yogurt making.
Visitors also explore Imsil Cheese Theme Park (임실치즈테마파크), Imsil N Cheese Festival (임실N치즈축제) and Saseondae Tourist Resort & Sculpture Park (사선대관광지&조각공원) near this location.
