Ourhome Invites Jamboree Scout Members to Headquarters... Conducts Tour Program

Over 1,000 Scout Members Invited to Headquarters for Lunch
K-Food Cooking Class and Research Facility Tour Provided

Ourhome announced on the 10th that it invited about 1,000 Scout members who had withdrawn from the Jamboree campsite to its headquarters, providing meals and conducting tour programs such as cooking classes.

As the World Organization of the Scout Movement decided to evacuate the Saemangeum campsite early due to the impact of Typhoon 'Khanun,' participants moved to eight cities and provinces including Seoul, Gyeonggi, Jeonbuk, Chungnam, and Chungbuk to continue the remaining schedule.

Accordingly, on the 9th, Ourhome provided lunch to Jamboree participants at its Magok headquarters and nearby in-house restaurants operated by Ourhome. About 1,000 Jamboree members and staff from the U.S., Europe, and other regions who left the campsite and were participating in the Scout tour program attended. Popular Korean dishes such as Dakgangjeong (sweet crispy fried chicken) and mushroom bulgogi, as well as global menus like assorted sushi and mac and cheese, were served, along with halal and vegan meals.

A headquarters tour program and cooking classes were also prepared. The tour of key research and development (R&D) facilities within the Magok Food Research Center, along with K-food making experiences such as making pogi kimchi and gimbap, received the greatest response from the Scouts. Additionally, various nearby attractions such as the Heo Jun Museum, National Aviation Museum, and Seoul Botanic Park were recommended, with Ourhome employees directly leading and providing on-site guidance and active support.

Meanwhile, on the 8th, Ourhome provided bottled water, ready meals, and snacks in takeout form to Scout members and staff from various countries leaving the campsite. Meals continued to be provided to staff remaining at the campsite. Special meals such as halal menus for some participants were also maintained. Furthermore, on-site support such as guidance and escorting was provided during external tour programs. In particular, on the 11th, at the Sangam Stadium where the K-pop concert and closing ceremony will be held, Ourhome plans to provide not only portable meals for about 40,000 Scouts and related personnel but also special meals including halal and vegan options.

An Ourhome official said, “Until the end of the Jamboree, we will consider as many support measures as possible, taking into account the Scouts’ accommodations and tour programs, and will consult with relevant government agencies.”
