[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Gangjin County, Jeollanam-do (County Governor Lee Seung-ok) announced on the 29th that it signed a business agreement with Haenam County (County Governor Myeong Hyeon-gwan) at Haenam County Office for the win-win development of the tourism industry.


This agreement was promoted to actively carry out tourism marketing such as joint promotion projects between Gangjin County and Haenam County, joint planning and operation of cultural heritage exploration programs, and joint attraction of school trip groups.


By jointly planning the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's 2020 regional demand-tailored support public project, it was urgently promoted to overcome the limitations and inefficiencies of administrative districts between local governments and to establish a win-win regional development model through wide-area linkage projects.


There is high expectation as various stay-type package tourism projects can be carried out based on Dasan Jeong Yak-yong and Gosan Yun Seon-do, representative figures of Gangjin and Haenam, through cultural and spiritual historical connectivity.


In particular, the rich regional specialized resources that can be linked with each other, such as Gangjinman Ecological Park, Haenam Gocheonam Migratory Bird Habitat, Jeolla Byeongyeongseong Fortress and Jeolla Naval Base, Yeongnang Birthplace, and Danggut Pilgrimage Literature Museum, and the fact that the two counties can be traveled together through a long-distance Namdo trip are considered great attractions.


After this agreement, the county plans to actively promote practical discussions on tourism product operation and joint hosting of direct trade events for agricultural and specialty products.



Lee Seung-ok, Governor of Gangjin County, said, “I hope this will be an opportunity to present a vision for the tourism industry and balanced development through the promotion of wide-area linkage projects with Haenam County,” and added, “We will promote linked marketing and joint publicity in various fields to achieve practical synergy effects.”
