Korea's 'ambitious' plan to attract Chinese tourists unlikely to live up to expectations

Although experts and the industry welcomed the package plan, they pointed out its limitations.

Park In-sook, the president of the Korea Tourist Guide Association (KOTGA) who has been working as a tourist guide and interpreter since 1994, said that the plan is "long-awaited great news for the industry," but is unlikely to bring immediate effects, with the Chinese holiday season only weeks away.

"It usually takes longer than three to four weeks for an international tour program to be finalized because it involves flights, accommodations, restaurants, transport reservations and many other factors," Park told The Korea Times, Tuesday, questioning whether the package deal will attract more tourists during the upcoming holiday season.
