We came to learn from Hwaseong's Digitalized Village

Hwaseong City's Baekmi-ri and Mulkkot Digitalized Villages have been gaining popularity as benchmarking destinations and sister-city partnership targets among digitalized villages and enterprises nationwide.

On the 22nd, 43 residents and civil servants from Gunsan City's Shinsido Island Village and Kkanchi Meul Village visited Baekmi-ri Village and Mulkkot Digitalized Village in Hwaseong for benchmarking purposes.

During their visit, they held a discussion session with village operators regarding the activities of Hwaseong's digitalized villages, experiential program management expertise, and website operations. They also held a sister-city partnership ceremony to promote active exchanges between villages.

Additionally, they participated in experiential programs operated by the villages, including octopus fishing, clam digging, and squid catching.

A village official stated, "The popularity of Hwaseong City's digitalized villages is attributed to well-designed experiential program operations and revitalization of e-commerce," and added, "We will make further efforts for village development and promotion."

Meanwhile, residents from Gyeodong Village in Yeosu visited the site in July, and a visit from Paju City's digitalized village is scheduled for the 29th, with benchmarking visits from across the nation to Hwaseong's digitalized villages continuing in succession.
