Seogwipo to work on 10 major tourism projects in 2018
City spending \6b on various initiatives

Seogwipo is spending six billion won next year on ten projects in the tourism sector.

One of the projects is a first-of-its-kind so-called “3-Minute Tourism Film Festival.” Organizers say the focus of that initiative is to showcase some of the city’s hidden tourism treasures through storytelling. Anyone in Korea can take part by submitting pictures from their weddings or school trips in Seogwipo.

Officials will also develop ten architectural tours of the city as well as seven tour packages geared toward Japanese tourists visiting on their own, rather than as part of a group.

Finally the city will both expand the scale of the yearly Jeju Canola Flower Festival and set up booths where festival visitors can purchase regional specialties.
