Gwangju's Buk-gu and Hwasun County have agreed to collaborate on enhancing tourism and sports resources to attract more visitors and boost the local economy.
On September 28, Buk-gu Mayor Shin Soo-jung and Hwasun County Governor Lim Ji-rak signed a memorandum of understanding for mutual development in the tourism and sports sectors at the Hwasun County Office.
Officials from both local governments attended the signing ceremony.
Under the agreement, the two municipalities will work together to connect tourism resources and sports facilities to increase visitor attraction and facility usage, focusing on five collaborative projects.
The main projects include: mutual operation of tourism promotion centers or booths, online and offline mutual promotion, joint development and operation of tourism courses, mutual operation of tourist incentives, and mutual use of public sports facilities.
Hwasun County and Buk-gu expect that increased interaction between tourists and sports facility users will boost sales for local businesses, including accommodations, restaurants, and traditional markets, thereby stimulating local consumption.
Governor Lim Ji-rak stated, "We will diligently pursue collaborative projects to ensure they provide tangible benefits to the local economy through mutual visits."
