Korea Tourism Organisation signs MoU with OTOAI

The Korea tourism organisation (KTO) has signed an MOU with Outbound Tour Operators Association of India (OTOAI) to boost outbound traffic numbers from India to South Korea with a special focus on MICE. With this MOU, otoai will prioritise South Korea as a Focus Country for 2019. A book, titled, ‘Indian Friendly Restaurants in Korea’, was released on the occasion.

The MoU was signed on the sidelines of Tourism Travel Mart being held in Mumbai. Nine DMCs and four regional tourism organisations were participating in the mart apart from Korea film commission and Seoul film commission.

“India has always been an important country for South Korea. We believe there is tremendous untapped potential between these two countries. We will continue to invest in promoting Korea for Indian travellers and this MoU reinstates our attempt in doing so. We look forward to a long-standing partnership with OTOAI in making Korea the first choice for Indian travellers,” said Kwon Jong Sool, director, Korea Tourism Organisation.
