14/05/24 - K-Influencer: Looking to book a trip to South Korea? Visit Korea Travel Fair 2024!
Are you planning a trip to Korea anytime soon?
If you’ve never been - or if you been several times, but looking for something new in your next trip, perhaps you’d like to go to the Korea Travel Fair 2024?!
I hear they’ve invited some regional tourism organizations from Busan, Gangwon do, Gwangju, Jeju and Yeosu to share more about those destinations. But that’s not all. There are workshops and different activities at the travel fair as well. And apparently - there’s even freebies and travel discounts at the event too!
Fiona Lee, Marketing Manager, Korea Tourism Organization, joins Hongbin Jeong on K-WAVE to tell us more about the event.

It’s K-Slang word of the week - where I tell you one Korean slang word each week, to keep you on trend and help you blend in with the Koreans. And today's slang word is Nong-hyup eun haeng.
