About Korea in View
A Korean festival and travel magazine that keeps TourAPI facts and operator-written guides on separate layers.
Korea in View is a Korean festival and travel magazine that sits on the Korea Tourism Organization TourAPI. Dates, address, phone, official overview, and official photos on listing pages are official facts. Guides, /notes, /journal, and /eats are ours. We do not rewrite official overviews to look original.
Our name carries two meanings: a window into Korea, and Korea seen through Korean eyes. Hubs help you find festivals; guides are the writing we actually own.
• Browse festivals happening now, this weekend, or this month
• Explore by 17 regions including Seoul, Busan, Jeju and more
• Filter by 8 themes: traditional, culture, nature, food, music, night, sports, family
• Find nearby festivals based on your location (coordinates go only to our nearby API to query TourAPI; they are not stored or used for ads)
• Operator-written festival travel guides (Korean and English). These are not expanded TourAPI blurbs.
• Hub and navigation UI in 9 languages: Korean, English, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Spanish, French, German, and Russian
On fact pages, dates, address, phone, official overview, and official photos come from the Korea Tourism Organization TourAPI. We do not create or rewrite those fields. Organizers may change details, so re-check the official channel before you go.

Fact layer: dates, address, phone, official overview, and official photos on festival and place pages come from TourAPI as-is. We do not rewrite those fact fields.
Interpretation layer: /guide pages and /notes operator visit notes are first-person writing, labeled separately. Notes hang on our internal entity IDs; TourAPI contentid is a join key only. We do not expand TourAPI overviews to look original.
Archive layer: ended, confirmed seasons get a thin /archive year page. We do not rewrite official overviews as our articles, and we do not mirror TourAPI.
