During the meeting, the festival agency explained the detailed implementation plans, and the attendees inspected preparations in areas such as parking, transportation, safety, and publicity.

They also discussed potential issues and responses on site, including traffic and parking management in anticipation of increased visitors, safety management at the venue, and measures to ensure visitor convenience. The county and related organizations plan to conduct additional checks on preparations in each area before the festival opens.

The 4th Hapcheon Hwangto Hanwoo Festival will be held for three days from October 9 to 11. The festival will feature food, hands-on activities, and performances aimed at promoting the local 'Hapcheon Hwangto Hanwoo' beef brand and expanding consumption.

In particular, plans are in place to attract visitors to local tourist attractions such as the autumn silver grass and pink muhly at Hwangmaesan Mountain by linking them to the festival and encouraging local tourism and economic activity.

Kim Yooncheol, head of Hapcheon County, stated, "We will ensure thorough preparation so that the festival raises awareness for Hapcheon Hwangto Hanwoo and also benefits the local economy."

As an influx of tourists is expected during the festival, the main operational challenge will be ensuring that traffic and parking management, as well as safety measures at the venue, are implemented smoothly in practice.
