They hold rituals for the Sangdang (“upper shrine”) and Jungdang (“middle shrine”) on the fourteenth day and village ritual on the fifteenth day. The ritual is being held in order of 12 Dangsan-gut (shrine ritual)－Gibaji-gut (flag ritual)－Madang balbi (household ritual)－Honmaji (ancestral ritual)－Wonnim nori (play of head of the village)－Hadang (ritual in “lower shrine”)－Obang dolgi (round five places)－Gi beorigi (send off flags). In Jangjwa-ri, religious rites such as Gibaji-gut and Honmaji are important. The instruments as Jing (large gong) and Beobgo (small drum) are more important than others.
