According to the province on June 9, the contest aims to expand empathy and participation in ecotourism by encouraging participants to capture and share moments of nature, people, inspiration, and healing encountered along ecotourism sites and the Thousand-Mile Journey trails through photographs and short videos (short-form).

Anyone can enter the contest with original works in any genre or format, such as vlogs, documentaries, or parodies, without restrictions on region or age. Participation is open to individuals or teams. To submit an entry, applicants should download the application form from the Jeonbuk Ecotourism Promotion Support Center website and email it along with their work.

A total of 38 winning entries will be selected, with 19 each in the photography and short-form categories, and prizes will be awarded. The winners will be announced on the center's website in October. The province plans to use the winning works as future ecotourism promotional content and expand public engagement through initiatives such as a "Traveling Photo Exhibition." For more details, contact the Jeonbuk Ecotourism Promotion Support Center.

Han Soonok, Director of the Carbon Neutral Policy Division of Jeonbuk Province, said, "This contest is being held for the second time following last year, and it is an opportunity to widely promote Jeonbuk's ecological value. We look forward to seeing a variety of creative entries."
