[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jeong Hyeong-seok] Mokpo City announced on the 5th that the '2020 Mokpo Cultural Heritage Night Tour' will be held from September 18 to 20 in the Yudal and Manho-dong modern historical and cultural area.

On the 28th of last month, the city held a working council meeting to promote the Cultural Heritage Night Tour, gathering various opinions and officially starting preparations.

At the meeting attended by 12 public-private promotion committee members, including local cultural and artistic organizations and Mokpo National University, the monitoring report of last year's night tour conducted by the Cultural Heritage Administration, this year's event schedule, and promotion directions were discussed.

In particular, last year's Mokpo Cultural Heritage Night Tour received an 'A' grade (4 out of 27 local governments) in the comprehensive evaluation by the Cultural Heritage Administration, including expert field evaluations, visitor satisfaction, and administrative assessments, thanks to differentiated experience and exhibition programs and content based on Mokpo's stories. This year, the city plans to gather all local cultural and artistic capabilities aiming to be selected as an excellent night tour.

Additionally, on the 20th, experts such as Cultural Heritage Administration night tour evaluators and researchers will be invited to hold a forum for the development direction of the Mokpo Cultural Heritage Night Tour, finalize the event program, and newly establish promotional posters and a website next month to provide real-time information related to the Cultural Heritage Night Tour.

This year's event plans to link with national projects such as the creation of four major tourist hub cities nationwide and international events like the Jeonnam International Sumukh Biennale, expanding programs for foreign tourists to lay the foundation for becoming a global event.

Meanwhile, the Mokpo Cultural Heritage Night Tour has been selected for the Cultural Heritage Administration's public contest project for three consecutive years since 2018, establishing itself as a representative cultural event of the region.
