Promoting Geumsan and Geumsan Ginseng
to Urban Youth and Outside Visitors
With the 43rd Geumsan World Ginseng Festival set to take place on September 19, the first round of the "Rural Signal in Geumsan" program, designed to promote Geumsan to outside visitors, has successfully concluded.
From September 7 to 9, Geumsan County organized a three-day program for more than 20 young people in their twenties, allowing them to experience the flavors and unique atmosphere of the region.
In particular, activities such as making ginseng flower vases, harvesting ginseng, and touring the Geumgold Market received enthusiastic responses.
The participants plan to share their experiences in Geumsan through their personal social networking services (SNS) and also take part in the 43rd Geumsan World Ginseng Festival, which will be held for ten days starting on September 19, to help promote the festival’s various programs.
Additionally, the second round of the program is scheduled to take place from September 15 to 17.
Kim Donghae, an official from the Future Strategy Division, stated, "We will showcase the charm of Geumsan to the young people participating in the Rural Signal in Geumsan program," adding, "We will do our best to ensure that the Geumsan World Ginseng Festival is filled with youthful energy."
