There is growing interest in whether a 27-hole golf course will be developed in Seobu-myeon, Hongseong, which suffered significant damage from a large wildfire last year.


According to the county on the 13th, a company recently submitted a proposal for the construction of the golf course. Accordingly, the county plans to proceed with administrative procedures such as urban planning changes for the golf course site, approval of the sports facility project plan, and environmental impact assessments.


If the administrative procedures proceed as scheduled, a 27-hole golf course will be developed by 2028 on a 533,000-pyeong site in the Seobu-myeon area of Hongseong. Accommodation facilities, including a resort, will also be constructed alongside the golf course.



Yirong Rok, the governor of Hongseong County, stated, "Since this project involves an investment of more than 200 billion won in private capital, we will spare no administrative support to ensure smooth project progress." He added, "Through the golf course development project, we hope to breathe new life into Seobu-myeon, which was affected by the wildfire, and that Hongseong County will establish itself as a representative tourist destination on the West Coast."
