Agencies can apply through May 8. Gwangju will select 220 agencies and provide each up to \u20a92,000,000 (about $1,500) to plan new travel products. <\/p>\n<p> Agencies with strong sales performance may receive additional post-development funding for promotion and marketing, up to \u20a93,000,000 (about $2,250). <\/p>\n<p> Through this program, Gwangju aims to identify and back travel products across themes like food, history, humanities, arts, night tourism, wellness, and festivals \u2014 and to grow distinctive tourism content into longer-stay experiences.
