The "Local Brand Forum in Andong," which seeks sustainable regional revitalization measures by utilizing Andong's distinctive resources such as the Andong Dam and Imha Dam in North Gyeongsang Province, will be held over three days in Andong starting November 19.

The forum was organized to mark the 50th anniversary of the Andong Dam's completion. About 400 participants, including local entrepreneurs, business leaders, and experts active across the country, will explore distinctive ways to utilize the region's unique resources.

Through the forum, the city of Andong plans to reexamine the value of waterfront resources centered on the Andong Dam and develop tourism content.

The city recently signed a business agreement with the Korea Water Resources Corporation, the Local Brand Forum, and Andong On People to ensure the successful hosting of the forum. It plans to form a forum preparation committee with these organizations within the month.
