North Chungcheong Province offers 8,231 lodging discounts for summer and fall

Visitors to North Chungcheong Province this summer and fall will have an opportunity to save on accommodation as the provincial government and nine participating cities launch a significant discount coupon program. A total of 8,231 lodging discount coupons will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis throughout July and September.

The initiative, named 'Well & Come Chungbuk,' is designed to alleviate the financial burden of lodging for tourists and stimulate the region's stay-type tourism. The participating cities include Cheongju, Chungju, Jecheon, Boeun, Yeongdong, Jeungpyeong, Goesan, Eumseong, and Danyang. The program is jointly funded, with the provincial government contributing 150 million won and the nine cities collectively providing another 150 million won.

Summer discount coupons, available for issuance from July 1 to July 10, can be used for stays until August 31. Fall coupons, issued from September 1 to September 10, are valid for stays until October 31. A key condition is that the reservation must be made on the same day the coupon is issued; unused coupons will automatically expire. The discount amounts vary based on the accommodation cost: 50,000 won off for stays over 100,000 won, 30,000 won for stays over 50,000 won, and 20,000 won for stays over 30,000 won.
