Korean tour guides complain, but they can't earn money from China tourists. How did the tourists react?

South Korea is located in the south of the Korean peninsula in East Asia, surrounded by the sea on three sides and the Yellow Sea on the west. It is a capitalist country with developed economy, and now it has become one of the four developed countries in Asia. South Korea's entertainment industry is doing very well, with strong singers and film and television works. Many people in China also like Korean film and television works, so they also want to see what Korea is like.

It used to be a trend for China tourists to travel to South Korea. At that time, China tourists became the backbone of Korean tourism, not only in large numbers, but also with strong spending power. They will buy a lot of products from South Korea, and then return to China to make the tourism industry in South Korea prosperous. But now, Korean tour guides say they can't make money from China tourists.

0 1 China tourists used to be the main consumer of South Korea, and tour guides also earned a lot of money.

The peak of Korean tourism was in 20 16. At that time, there were 8.26 million China tourists visiting Korea, which was the country that received the most international tourists in Korea, and China tourists were also the main force of Korean consumption, so Korean tour guides earned a lot of money. How strong are the spending power of China tourists?

Korean female tour guides said that China tourists generally prefer shopping and will buy many Korean products back. On one occasion, a tourist from China spent 1 100 million won in South Korea in one day, that is, hundreds of thousands of RMB. China tourists with so much money naturally made a lot of money for Korean tour guides, so they were all circulated in the industry at that time. When they met a local tourist from China, they didn't have to work for a month.

Korean tour guides complain that they can't earn money from China tourists now.

However, with a series of incidents, such as the local residents of Jeju Island uniting to limit the number of South Korean tourists, because they think that the arrival of China tourists will worsen their environment, and a series of political events eventually aroused the resentment of China tourists, China tourists began to boycott traveling to South China. At that time, Korean media reported that this was a huge blow to Korean tourism, and hundreds of thousands of employees would be affected.

Now Korean tour guides are complaining that they can no longer earn money from China tourists. Over the years, the number of tourists from China has been declining. Many tour guides doing business in China choose to change careers or receive tourists from Southeast Asia, but they say that these tourists are not as generous as those from China.

In addition, even if there are tourists from China, it is difficult for Korean travel agencies, because many Koreans have started to open hotels. They can speak Chinese and Korean, and they come from China, which is more popular with tourists from China. China tourists are naturally reluctant to choose Korean travel agencies, which makes it difficult for South Korea to catch the rest of China tourists. Korean tour guides also expressed helplessness.
