Boseong County's Field Tour Event for Third-Year Students a Success

Visits to Taebaek Mountain Range Literature Museum and Other Sites
Dialogue Session with the County Governor Fosters Communication

Boseong County, South Jeolla Province, announced that the "My Hometown, Boseong Exploration Team Field Tour" program, which was held for around 200 third-year high school students in the county on November 28, was successfully completed.

This program was designed as a youth-oriented, experiential education initiative, allowing students who had finished the college entrance exam to directly experience the cultural, natural, and historical resources of their hometown, Boseong, and to internalize the three identities of Boseong: loyalty, arts, and tea culture.

After the college entrance exam, high school seniors took time to rest and heal by visiting the Taebaek Mountain Range Literature Museum as part of the "My Hometown, Boseong Exploration Team On-site Tour." Provided by Boseong County

During the tour, the participating students visited major cultural and tourist landmarks in Boseong, such as Boseong Yeolseonru, the Boseong tea fields, Botjae, and the Taebaek Mountain Range Literature Museum. Guided by cultural tourism interpreters, they learned about the historical and artistic traces of Boseong and the background behind the formation of its tea culture.

In particular, a dialogue session was arranged between the county governor and the students, where practical questions about the future direction of Boseong, social structure, jobs, and living conditions were discussed, creating an opportunity for intergenerational understanding and communication.

The students asked sharp questions not only about their exploration of Boseong, including Yeolseonru, but also about county administration topics such as the new Boseong Station, the fine dust-blocking forest, and overall climate and environmental policies, going beyond a simple tour to express their voices as responsible members of the local community.

One student who participated in the tour said, "I never realized that my hometown, which I always took for granted, had so many stories and so much history. Experiencing it firsthand made me feel proud, and now I want to promote my hometown even more."

Kim Cheolwoo, Governor of Boseong County, stated, "Through this exploration, I believe the students were able to physically experience the assets of our hometown and gain a new perspective on the value of Boseong. Going forward, we will expand various field education programs that help youth learn about and love their hometown, fostering a stronger sense of community and pride."
