The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism plans to promote ‘K-Culture’ as a future core growth industry under the vision ‘K-Culture, enjoyed by all citizens and embraced by the world.’ The ministry aims to strengthen the foundation of a cultural powerhouse, achieve 30 million K-tourists early, and establish a trustworthy sports environment. The ministry announced its major work plans for next year at the Government Sejong Convention Center on the 16th.
The ministry will develop tailored strategies for nurturing cultural creation industries such as film, games, and popular music, and will implement various policies to expand the sales and export scale of the content industry. Additionally, it plans to foster the ‘K-Culture’ industry in various fields by improving K-pop performance venues, supporting creative musicals, and developing collaborative products with traditional culture.
The ministry plans to improve the creative environment for artists and support the artistic activities of young creators through various welfare policies. It will also expand cultural consumption support so that anyone in the region can enjoy cultural content, and support cultural and artistic activities without regional disparities through programs such as the Youth Culture and Arts Pass and the Dream Arts Troupe.
The ministry aims to achieve 30 million K-tourists early by creating regional tourism hubs to disperse the concentration of foreign visitors in the metropolitan area and implementing various policies to improve the convenience of foreign visitors. Additionally, it will continue to promote the eradication of sports violence and the reform of sports associations, and expand the infrastructure for daily sports by establishing national fitness certification centers and national sports centers for physical fitness measurement and exercise prescriptions.
