The Sokcho Marine Industrial Complex is a key regional industrial zone, consisting of three complexes and more than 120 companies, employing over 1,300 Korean and foreign workers. It plays a vital role in the Sokcho economy.


Approximately 600 participants, including business owners and workers from within the industrial complex, attended the festival, which featured a variety of programs such as performances, a workers' singing contest, luncheon, and prize drawings.


In particular, the workers' singing contest saw a total of 10 participants, further heating up the excitement at the venue. This year, the festival was even richer and more enjoyable than last year, with the addition of a traditional games event and a recreational sports day.


Sokcho City believes that this event helped boost worker morale and supported foreign workers in adapting to Korean culture and the local community. The city plans to promote various exchange programs in the future.



An official from Sokcho City stated, "We will actively support industrial complex workers so they can feel proud as key contributors to the local economy," adding, "We will continue to implement a variety of exchange programs so that foreign workers can better integrate as members of the Sokcho community."
