With the transition to the coronavirus pandemic this year, it is expected that more than 40,000 people, including domestic athletes, executives, and overseas compatriots, will visit Jeonnam in large numbers. In order for visitors to remember Jeonnam as a place they want to visit again, it is important to provide sincere hospitality at lodging and restaurants. To this end, South Jeolla Province is promoting administrative guidance and campaigns to eradicate illegal practices such as refusing advance lodging reservations and to ensure compliance with posted lodging rates. For the first time in the history of the National Sports Festival in over 100 years, the plan is to collaborate with an online accommodation reservation platform (‘Here’s How’) to provide reasonable prices and a transparent accommodation reservation system to visitors to Jeollanam-do. In order to provide a deep impression of Namdo food, which is considered the most Korean taste, we will focus on restaurant hygiene and friendly service.소닉카지노
