Top National Health Index and Travel Environment Comfort, Experience the Taste and Charm of Goheung

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Goheung-gun, Jeonnam Province (Governor Song Gwi-geun) announced on the 19th that it is recruiting participants for the ‘One Month Travel in Namdo’ program until the 23rd.

The ‘One Month Travel in Namdo’ project, a Jeonnam Province experiential travel initiative, encourages tourists to visit by promoting the charms of various places in Jeonnam through direct experience and sharing on SNS. The county was selected as a project site last month through a provincial public contest application.

The county plans for program participants to live in Goheung and post their travel experiences and reviews along with video materials on SNS platforms such as YouTube, blogs, and Instagram, thereby securing diversity and reliability of travel information.

With the spread of COVID-19 increasing preferences for small group travel such as family, couples, and friends, as well as domestic travel, the project will operate travel content that allows visitors to stay in the area and experience its unique tastes, styles, and various activities.

Eligibility is open to anyone aged 18 or older residing outside the Gwangju and Jeonnam regions who wishes to travel to Goheung. Travel writers, artists, famous bloggers, YouTubers, and other influencers who can actively promote the county will be given preferential selection.

Project participants will receive support for up to 7 days, including up to 70,000 KRW per day for accommodation, up to 20,000 KRW for transportation, up to 30,000 KRW for meals, and up to 20,000 KRW for tourism expenses (admission fees, experience fees, etc.). Through tourism programs operated by the county and delicious food, participants can directly see and feel the taste and charm of Goheung.

A county official said, “Ranked number one in national health index and travel comfort in Korea! We hope people make good use of this excellent opportunity to stay long-term in Goheung, enjoy its pristine natural environment and food, relax and heal, and create lasting memories.”
