The district office initiated this project to invigorate the tourist zone and enable foreign tourists to access Korean food without difficulty. This service automatically translates the restaurant's menu from English into Japanese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese simply by scanning, without the need to install a separate mobile application.

Additionally, it includes an explanation feature for menus that may be unfamiliar to foreigners, which is expected to alleviate ordering difficulties for foreign tourists.
