Geumsan County held a results presentation after conducting an overseas cultural exploration program for university student groups, aiming to nurture Geumsan youth into global talent. Notably, participants also proposed ideas such as developing tourism content unique to Geumsan and strategies to revitalize local markets and festivals.

The Geumsan Education Love Scholarship Foundation held the results presentation for the university student group overseas cultural exploration on September 13 in the foundation's conference room.

This program, which has been implemented since last year, supports up to 80% of the requested amount within a maximum limit of 10 million won per team for university students who graduated from high schools in the county.

This year, six teams, including the "Reliable Friends Team," were selected. They successfully completed their overseas explorations during the summer vacation in regions such as the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, T?rkiye, and Thailand.

At the presentation, each team shared their experiences and insights gained through the exploration. They also presented ideas that could be applied to Geumsan County, including the development of Geumsan-style tourism content, strategies for revitalizing markets and festivals, and exploring the value of Geumsan ginseng through European slow food culture.
