The LA Korean Festival, held under the theme "Beyond the Boundary," is the largest Korean cultural and economic exchange event in North America. Approximately 250 booths are operated, introducing Korean traditional culture and specialty products from various regions to the local Korean community and American consumers.

Hoengseong County has set up four booths at this festival, with eight local companies participating and showcasing a variety of Hoengseong specialty products. In particular, wild vegetable products and processed Hoengseong Deodeok foods have attracted significant interest from the local Korean community.

Additionally, Hoengseong County expects this festival to help expand its sales channels and promote exchanges within the United States. On October 20, the county will participate in an export consultation event for invited buyers hosted by Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, aiming to establish strategies for entering the North American market through interactions with local buyers.

Lee Youngcheol, head of the Economic Policy Division of Hoengseong County, stated, "The LA Korean Festival is a great opportunity not only to promote Hoengseong's outstanding agricultural and specialty products to the local Korean community, but also to the broader American society. We will actively support participating companies so they can secure practical overseas sales channels through export consultations and market research."
