The Korea Travel Fiesta 2025 has officially launched, inviting Filipino families to explore the wonders of winter travel in Korea. This exciting event kicked off on Saturday, organized by the Korean Tourism Organization (KTO).
Why All the Excitement?
The Korea Travel Fiesta is more than just a travel expo; it’s a gateway to endless possibilities. KTO Acting Vice President, Kim Nam Chun, shared the event’s mission: “We want to showcase Korea’s diverse tourism charms and inspire a wave of winter travel just in time for the holiday season in the Philippines.” As we step into the festive ‘ber-months,’ this event is a perfect way to experience Korea’s hidden treasures ahead of the Christmas rush.
What Awaits You?
Held at the vibrant SM Mall of Asia Music Hall, this fiesta promises fantastic travel deals! From enticing offers by airlines and travel agencies to exclusive ski resort packages just a hop, skip, and jump away from Seoul, there’s something for everyone. Just imagine—if you book your flights during the event, you can take advantage of the exciting “1+1 promotion.” This means if you purchase a roundtrip ticket to Korea, you’ll receive free tickets to stunning destinations like Jeju Island or Busan!
Immerse Yourself in Culture
Ready to dive into Korean culture? The event offers unique experiences like trying on a hanbok, having a personalized skin or color analysis, and even getting cartoonized by talented Korean artists. It’s not just about travel; it’s about making lasting memories with your family. Kim passionately stated, “We hope these programs will inspire you to create a memorable Christmas holiday in Korea, enjoying the richness of our culture while accessing exclusive information and benefits!”
A Growing Connection
The love between the Philippines and Korea is blossoming. In 2024, a remarkable 51% increase in Filipino visitors to South Korea was reported, bringing the total to 520,000 travelers—making us the largest group from Southeast Asia! “Tourism exchange has been thriving, and we expect even more activity in the future,” Kim added with hope.
A Message from the Department of Tourism
Department of Tourism Secretary, Christina Frasco, echoed this sentiment, encouraging Filipinos to explore the gems of South Korea and welcoming Koreans to discover the beauty of the Philippines. “Together, we can nurture this partnership, ensuring tourism fosters understanding, prosperity, and peace,” she expressed, highlighting our shared commitment to sustainable tourism through new direct flights connecting South Korea to Cebu, Clark, Davao, Panglao, and Kalibo.
A Star-Studded Performance
The program featured an electrifying performance by the cast of the musical “Dream High,” including stars like Kim Dongjun and SE7EN, who serenaded us with delightful songs from the show. To add to the excitement, the martial arts group K-Tigers captivated the audience with thrilling taekwondo displays, intertwining traditional moves with contemporary dance hits from the Netflix film “K-Pop Demon Hunters.” Infinite’s Kim Myungsoo also graced the stage, stirring the crowd with his captivating hits.
