Under the theme "Suncheon, the Hotspot for Life Photos," Suncheon City plans to promote a project to create tourist attractions by designing photo zones at major tourist sites, enhancing their appeal, visualizing images, and composing stories.

Anyone who is a Korean citizen, including university students and artists nationwide, can participate. Designs must consider Suncheon's social, cultural, and geographical elements, attract tourists' attention, and be suitable for the installation location considering the surrounding environment. Each participant can submit up to one photo zone design.

The contest will be held for one month from the 2nd to the 30th of next month. Submissions of photo zone design works and image files should be sent to the Suncheon City Tourism Division by the 30th of next month.

Through evaluations by internal and citizen judging panels and tourist preference surveys, a total prize of 6 million KRW will be awarded: Grand Prize (1 person) 3 million KRW, Excellence Prize (2 persons) 1 million KRW each, and Encouragement Prize (5 persons) 200,000 KRW each. The selected designs will be produced as sculptures and displayed at major Suncheon tourist sites starting next year.

A Suncheon City official said, "We hope many people will take an interest in the charm of Suncheon tourism through the major tourist site photo zone design contest." He added, "We expect this opportunity to establish Suncheon as a hotspot where people can capture their life photos."
