[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Tourism Organization announced on the 28th that they have established an open platform called 'Korea Tourism Content Lab,' which gathers various digital tourism contents such as tourism information and multimedia in one place, and have begun pilot operation.


This platform centralizes the management system of tourism content, which was previously produced and managed individually mainly by local governments and public institutions, by collecting tourism content from across the country in one place.


The Korea Tourism Content Lab currently lists about 700,000 tourism contents, including multilingual tourism information and images. Anyone can conveniently search and utilize them.


The organization plans to provide various travel information services to portal sites and online travel agencies through content partnerships with major private media in the future.


Local governments and Regional Tourism Organizations (RTOs) are also expected to benefit from promotional effects that raise awareness of local tourist attractions through the Korea Tourism Content Lab.



After the beta service opens, the organization plans to continuously update to improve service usability and secure various types of content in cooperation with local governments and RTOs. The official service will open at the end of April.
