On June 6, the "Refreshing Fujian, Min-Style Life" and "Blessed Fuzhou Meets Seoul" promotional event was held on the main stage of the 41st Seoul International Travel Fair. Co-hosted by the Department of Culture and Tourism of Fujian Province and the China National Tourist Office in Seoul, and co-organized by the Fuzhou Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism, the event attracted nearly 200 participants, including South Korean tourism representatives, travel agents, media personnel, and overseas Chinese. Through a Korean-language promotional video, intangible cultural heritage performances, selected excerpts of Min Opera, and insights into Fuzhou's tourism, the event vividly showcased Fujian's UNESCO World Heritage sites, breathtaking landscapes with tea-scented mountains, and rich cultural charm. Additionally, Fuzhou Airport's "Fu Wang Fu Lai" (Fuzhou Inbound & Outbound) preferential policy and three premium inbound tourist routes were introduced to provide greater convenience for South Korean travelers. In recent years, with the relaxation of transit visa-free policies and the normalization of direct flights between Fuzhou and Seoul, South Korea has become a key source market for inbound tourism to Fujian. In 2025, Fujian received 236,700 South Korean tourists, marking a year-on-year surge of 134.4%. This event further enhanced the brand influence of "Refreshing Fujian" in South Korea and laid a solid foundation for future cooperation. @CG_ZhangJianmin @zhang_heqing @ChineseEmbinUS @ChenMingjian_CN @UNWTO @HolaFujian @FuzhouCity @Frontlinestory @CGTNOfficial @XHNews @CNYouthDaily @PDChina
