Currently, there is a shrine to the memory of Nongae near Chokseokru, in central Jinju. Around the fortress, the Nongae festival has been celebrated every May since 2002 to honor and preserve the memory of Nongae. The portrait of Nongae painted by Kim Eun-ho had been kept in Jinju fortress, whereas his drawing were forcibly removed by a local civil group that argued Kim was one of the renowned pro-Japanese artists during the Colonial Period. Following support from the regional government, a newly executed painting was adopted in 2008.
