Chajeon Nori (Wooden Chariot Battle)
- Two large A-frame wooden chariot frames
- Sturdy rope for lashing the frames together
- An open field or wide street
Each team builds and carries a large wooden A-frame chariot on their shoulders, with a team captain riding or standing at the top to direct the charge.
The two teams advance toward each other from opposite ends of the field, chanting and building momentum as they close the distance.
When the chariots meet, the teams push and lock their frames together, straining to shove the opposing chariot backward or knock it off balance.
Team members supporting the frame from below try to lift and tilt the opponent's chariot while protecting their own captain from falling.
A team scores a decisive win when the opposing chariot is toppled to the ground or its captain is forced to jump off.
Matches are often held as a knockout tournament between village or neighborhood teams during a local festival.
