University Student Reporter Group Travel Leader Fam Tour.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam Province, announced on the 12th that it held a fam tour by inviting the Travel Leaders from the Korea Tourism Organization's university student reporter group over two days on the 8th and 9th.

This fam tour was conducted on a small scale due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). The five Travel Leaders were divided into two groups: the Autumn Gourmet & Healing Tour and the Autumn Leisure Tour.

The Autumn Gourmet & Healing Tour started with a cooking class at Gayasan Starlight Farm, followed by a walk along the autumn foliage-covered Sorigil Trail, tasting mountain vegetable set meals, and visiting a coffee experience village.

Participants enjoyed various activities at Hapcheon’s representative tourist attractions, including trying on flowering period costumes at the Video Theme Park, riding the luge at the National Treasure Theme Park, and experiencing survival games. At Hwangmaesan Mountain, they witnessed the spectacular silver grass swaying under the sunset glow.

Moon Dong-gu, Director of the Tourism Promotion Division, said, “Although the tour was conducted on a small scale, dividing into two groups allowed us to introduce more tourist sites in Hapcheon,” and added, “We hope this fam tour will encourage young tourists to take a greater interest in Hapcheon.”
