As Jeollanam-do has designated the entire month of May as "Visit Jeonnam Month" and launched a full-scale campaign to attract tourists, the diverse attractions and generous benefits prepared by the provincial and municipal governments are receiving an enthusiastic response.


Jeollanam-do is conducting a "Big 3 Special Discount" event, offering discounts on accommodation, experiences, and workation packages. These include a 50% discount on accommodation fees, a 50% discount on workation (remote work at vacation spots) accommodation and office usage fees, and a "1+1" admission event at major tourist attractions and experience facilities.


The accommodation discount event is available to tourists whose registered address is outside the Jeollanam-do area. A discount of 50,000 KRW is offered for a one-night stay costing at least 100,000 KRW, 40,000 KRW for stays of at least 70,000 KRW, and 30,000 KRW for stays of at least 50,000 KRW.


By staying in Jeollanam-do for four nights in a year, visitors can receive up to 200,000 KRW in discounts. Members of the "Jeonnam Sarangae Supporters" receive an additional 10,000 KRW discount per night on top of the regular discount amount.


Accommodation discounts and experience packages can be reserved through the Jeonnam Tourism Platform (JN TOUR) app. Workation packages can be booked on the "Jeonnam Blue Workation" website.


Across the cities and counties, 21 festivals will be held to attract tourists, including: the Damyang Bamboo Festival (May 2-6), the Boseong Daryang Tea Festival (May 2-6), the Yeosu Turtle Ship Festival (May 3-5), the Haenam Dinosaur Festival (May 3-5), the Gokseong World Rose Festival (May 16-25), the Sinan Purple Island Lavender Festival (May 16-25), and the Mokpo Music Play (May 23-25).


Each city and county has also prepared a wide array of special discounts and events.


By region, the following benefits are available: 50% discount at the Modern History Museum and other sites (Mokpo); 30% discount for families with multiple children at Aqua Planet (Yeosu); 40% group discount on integrated tickets for Suncheonman National Garden and Suncheonman Wetland (Suncheon); 50% discount on skate fish and 30% discount on Korean beef at Yeongsanpo Skate Fish Street (Naju); 50% discount on admission to Woodland and the Astronomical Science Center (Jangheung); and travel expense support upon presenting receipts from local accommodations, restaurants, cafes, or specialty product purchases (Yeonggwang, Jangseong, Wando), all aimed at reducing visitors' burdens and helping them enjoy their travels.


Yoo Hyeonho, Director of the Jeollanam-do Tourism and Sports Bureau, stated, "'Visit Jeonnam Month' in May is a special opportunity to fully enjoy the charms of Jeollanam-do and take advantage of abundant discounts," adding, "I hope that a budget-friendly trip to Jeonnam will fill families with joy and bring vitality to the local economy throughout May."
