Seoul Metropolitan Government stated “The current trend shown by global tourists visiting Seoul seems to go beyond merely visiting the conventional tourist attractions. They actually prefer first-hand tourism through which they can personally experience the daily lives of Seoul citizens, such as going shopping, eating and watching performances. We hope that ‘Run@Seoul Week’ can be an opportunity for global citizens to newly discover Seoul’s attractions and share its beauty with others, by participating directly in the scene or indirectly online.”
