Travel Platform 'TourLive' Hosts Jeju Island Contest

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] TourLive (CEO Noh Kyung-ah), an operator of a travel audio guide platform, announced on the 3rd that it will hold the 'TourLive Jeju Island Audio Tour Contest.'

Now in its second year, the audio tour contest is open to anyone who can create travel experiences as audio content, including current and former Jeju Island guides. The themes include tours of art galleries, museums, landmarks, cities, and unique travel experiences. Multiple entries are allowed.

Entries can be submitted through the TourLive contest website until the 31st of this month. Content that passes the screening will be registered as travel products on TourLive and MyRealTrip, allowing participants to earn sales revenue. Additionally, outstanding works will be selected, with one grand prize winner receiving 1,000,000 KRW and five excellence award winners each receiving 200,000 KRW. Winners will also be supported to officially work within TourLive.

Noh Kyung-ah, CEO of TourLive, said, "Jeju Island has numerous attractions, but travelers have few opportunities to hear interesting stories. Through this contest, we hope to secure diverse content about Jeju Island and provide a great opportunity for those with knowledge and talent but no way to monetize travel content to generate income."

Meanwhile, TourLive, established last year, offers an audio travel guide service available on mobile devices, providing over 200 products with various themes across 68 cities worldwide. Based on this, last year it received early-stage investments from Primer Saz? Partners, a venture capital firm based in Silicon Valley, USA, and MyRealTrip. Currently, it has surpassed 100,000 cumulative users, with 70% of all users being women in their 30s traveling with children.
