However, “Grey Bear Fantasy Snow Village” hereinafter referred to as Fantasy Snow Village has been constantly criticized since its opening on January 1st in Hanam Province.
。
The most criticized aspect of this facility is that there is no real snow, and cotton is used to fake it. There are also opinions that the hygiene conditions are poor.
。
This facility has been temporarily closed since January 4th.
。
According to Chinese media such as the Gym Daily.

The magical snow village is set up inside the Prince Lavender Garden in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, and is promoted as a recreation of Grey Bear Ridge in Northeast China, which appears in the anime Bears Appear.

Kuma ga Arawareru is an anime series loved by people of all ages, and the story begins with a humorous confrontation between two brother bears and a lumberjack who tries to illegally log the primeval forest.
。
Later, the lumberjack who had been exploited by a corrupt company changed jobs to become a guide, joined forces with the bear brothers to fight against poachers, and at the same time began to show more human qualities.
。
Of the 2,136 comments submitted to the ticket sales site for Gensou Yukimura, more than 800 criticized the facility.
。
The most severely criticized point was that a hypothesis was made using cotton.
。
Furthermore, there are also many opinions that it is located in an inconvenient place, the hygiene is poor, and the prices of the products sold here are too high.
。
On January 4th, Mugen Snow Village issued an apology, admitting that their estimates for the number of visitors were insufficient and that the facility’s services and capacity were unable to meet the demand.
。
Regarding the compensation plan, this facility informs that those who entered between January 1 and January 3 and can provide proof of ticket purchase will be allowed one free admission during the Lunar New Year period in 2026, from February 9 to March 3.
。
The local government announced that it inspected the premises, summoned the person in charge for guidance, and simultaneously issued an order to suspend business operations and an order to improve the facilities.
。
The staff of Mugen Snow Village said in an interview that, due to the current weather conditions, artificial snow machines cannot be used, and repairs to facilities damaged by visitors are taking time, so the reopening date is undecided.
。
This year, the temperature in this area is much higher than usual.
。
Normally, the minimum temperature in early January drops to around minus 5 degrees, but this year it hardly went below zero.
。
The daytime high temperatures are usually above 10 degrees, and on some days, they can even exceed 15 degrees.
。
Even if artificial snow is used, it melts quickly.
。
This employee also explained that the claim about using artificial snow cotton is a misunderstanding.
。
Cotton is used only for photography purposes around the Mugen Snow Village, while real snow made by artificial snow machines is used in the main areas.
。
The person in charge of Mugen Yukimura said in an interview, We are currently working to resolve the related issues.
。
Once the adjustments are finished, I would like everyone to check the site.
