[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam, is embarking on the establishment of a ‘Herbal Medicine Lifestyle Culture Platform’ to maximize the regional image of ‘Jirisan Clean Herbal Valley’ and increase residents' income.

On the 14th, the county announced that as part of the Sancheong-eup urban regeneration New Deal project, ‘Sancheong Byeolgok ? I Will Live in Sancheong,’ it will create a Herbal Medicine Lifestyle Culture Platform.

This facility is planned to consist of two buildings in the Sangbong and Sucheong villages area of Sancheong-ri, Sancheong-eup. The total project cost will be 1.569 billion KRW.

The establishment of the Herbal Medicine Lifestyle Culture Platform is a core element of the Sancheong-eup urban regeneration New Deal project and is a convergence project of hardware (HW) and software (SW).

The experiential lodging facility will be operated in connection with the Herbal Medicine Cooking Training Center.

A lifestyle sharing market called ‘Namuarae Marche,’ where local residents can freely share their lifestyles and products with each other, will also be created.

This project originally aimed to revitalize a space prepared as a resting place for village residents but is now focused on regenerating a space with low current utilization.

The area around the village’s symbolic zelkova tree will be maintained and designed like a plaza. ‘Marche’ means sale, trade, or marketplace in French.

The rental circulation housing will be provided as temporary residential space for those who move to Sancheong for farming or rural living and wish to renovate their homes in line with the improvement of the residential environment in Sancheong-eup, allowing them to stay during the repair period.

A county official stated, “The Herbal Medicine Lifestyle Culture Platform is a project that develops and operates new income sources for residents and creates jobs based on Sancheong’s excellent oriental medicinal herbs and healthy food using them, such as herbal medicine cuisine,” adding, “We will strive to become a foundation for regional development in the future.”
