[Gurye=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yuk Miseok] On the 2nd, Jeollanam-do Gurye-gun announced that it secured 4 billion KRW (2 billion KRW from the government, 2 billion KRW from local governments) in project funds after being selected for the Smart Complex Shelter Creation Project, which was publicly recruited by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.

The county plans to revitalize local tourism and the economy by creating the Gurye Seomjingang Bamboo Forest Road Smart Complex Shelter, linking the clean river Seomjingang and natural tourism resources.

The Smart Complex Shelter is a cooperative project jointly promoted by the government and local governments to provide complex services for user convenience such as experience, viewing, and information provision at drowsiness rest areas along national roads.

The county received favorable evaluations by planning the Gurye Seomjingang Bamboo Forest Road Smart Complex Shelter Creation Project linked with excellent tourism resources near 181 Bongseo-ri, Gurye-eup, close to National Road No. 17.

The Gurye Seomjingang Bamboo Forest Road Smart Complex Shelter will increase the utilization of the shelter by installing rest facilities such as a pet daycare center and a small capsule hotel, and will be developed as a premium complex leisure space where visitors can enjoy rest and tourism simultaneously, linked with nearby tourism resources such as the Seomjingang Bamboo Forest Road and Osan Saseongam.

County Governor Kim Sun-ho said, “The Gurye Seomjingang Bamboo Forest Road Smart Complex Shelter will be developed as a premium smart complex shelter linking road resources and surrounding tourism resources,” and added, “I hope the smart complex shelter will enhance the reputation of Tourism Gurye and serve as an opportunity to revitalize the local economy.”

Meanwhile, Gurye-gun plans to establish a project promotion system including a business agreement with the Iksan Regional Land Management Office between March and April, and will begin full-scale design work from May.
