Imsil-gun Hosts 'Imsil N Cheese Festival' After 3 Years

[Imsil=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk, has rolled up its sleeves to ensure the successful hosting of the ImsilN Cheese Festival, held for the first time in three years.

The county announced on the 20th that the "2022 ImsilN Cheese Festival" will be held for four days from October 7 to 10.

Marking its 8th edition, this year's ImsilN Cheese Festival will be more substantial and abundant, as it could not be held for the past two years due to COVID-19.

To this end, on the 16th, a festival preparation status briefing was held at the Imsil Cheese Theme Park Visitor Center, presided over by County Governor Sim Min, to ensure the successful promotion of the 8th ImsilN Cheese Festival in 2022.

At the briefing, various programs aimed at providing joy and healing to residents and tourists exhausted by COVID-19 were reported in preparation for the festival's full-scale reopening after three years.

Additionally, discussions were held on future promotion plans by sector and stage for the overall festival.

The biggest feature of this year's ImsilN Cheese Festival is the expansion of the festival venue.

The county plans to expand the festival location from the Imsil Cheese Theme Park and Imsil Cheese Village to include the downtown area of Imsil.

Many new programs will be introduced, and efforts will be made to further increase residents' participation in the festival.

Through this, the county expects to disperse visitors concentrated at the festival site and parking lots, promote and guide local tourist attractions within Imsil, and revitalize the local commercial district.

Since its first event in 2015, launched at the beginning of the 6th local government term, the ImsilN Cheese Festival has rapidly grown into a representative festival of Korea, attracting 400,000 to 500,000 visitors annually.

It has been selected as a cultural tourism festival for three consecutive years, significantly contributing to spreading the Imsil-gun and ImsilN Cheese brand nationwide.

A county official said, "We must prepare without any setbacks so that the ImsilN Cheese Festival can develop into a festival that Imsil residents can take pride in and enjoy," adding, "We repeatedly urge everyone to make more creative and proactive efforts so that the ImsilN Cheese Festival can advance to the next level."
