[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The long-term stay travel project in Hamyang-gun, Gyeongnam, "Living One Month in Hamyang," is recruiting its first participants until the 21st.


The one-month stay aims to promote the county's tourism resources by encouraging long-term travel within the region and to revitalize the local economy through promotion using participants' SNS activities.


Among applicants aged 19 or older residing outside the Gyeongnam area with high SNS usage, about 15 teams per session (1 to 2 people per team) will be selected. Selected participants will stay for approximately 3 to 30 days, experience individually planned free travel, tourism resources, and cultural arts, and promote local tourism resources through SNS and other channels.


The county supports participants with accommodation fees (up to 50,000 KRW per day) and experience fees (50,000 to 80,000 KRW per person). During their stay, participants will be provided with tourism guidebooks, information on local accommodations, transportation, restaurants, and project-related details via mail and email to facilitate convenient travel.


After completing the project, participants will submit surveys reporting inconveniences and suggestions for improvement regarding the county's tourist sites.



Seo Chun-su, the mayor of Hamyang-gun, stated, "With the increase in domestic travel demand due to COVID-19, we expect many applicants. We hope participants will have ample time to experience not only Hamyang's representative tourist spots but also hidden attractions." He added, "Furthermore, we expect this project to contribute to promoting Hamyang tourism and revitalizing the local economy."
