Expo Dream Expedition Concludes 8-Night 9-Day Nationwide Tour Schedule

The ‘Expo Dream Expedition Team,’ which toured the country to gather the hopes of the entire nation for hosting the 2030 Busan World Expo, completed its 8 nights and 9 days nationwide tour on the 7th.

After holding a departure ceremony at 9 a.m. on March 29 in Busan, the Expo Dream Expedition Team traveled to major cities across the country such as Daegu, Gwangju, Suncheon, and Daejeon with a dedicated truck equipped with video and audio facilities, presenting various promotional programs aimed at local citizens.

The main programs included making the ‘So One Tree,’ the Expo OX Quiz, a cheer song flash mob, and catering by Busan’s representative coffee brand, ‘Momos Coffee.’

The ‘So One Tree,’ where wish papers written by citizens from each region were attached, was filled with over 5,000 participants’ wishes, so densely packed that no more could be added.

Participants of the International Bureau of Expositions (BIE) inspection team are dancing along and responding enthusiastically to the Expo Dream Expedition's flash mob performance at Gwanghwamun Square.

On the 3rd, a flash mob performance was also held at the Expo promotional event ‘Light from Gwanghwamun’ in Gwanghwamun Square for the International Bureau of Expositions (BIE) inspection team.

A Busan city official said, “It was impressive to see many participating citizens conveying messages of trust and support for Busan’s challenge to host the 2030 World Expo, often sharing special connections or memorable experiences with Busan.”

A representative from Busan City’s New Media Office, who led this Dream Expedition Team, said, “The warm support and encouragement from citizens in each region gave us the strength to complete the journey. We plan to do our best until the moment of hosting, responding to the nationwide desire gathered by the expedition team.”
