Under this agreement, the five participating institutions will launch the full-scale Children’s Stamp Tour: Kong Kong Kong starting this July through October.

Children who visit the National Busan Science Museum, National Maritime Museum, and National Assembly Library in Busan will collect three stamps—Star Kong (science), Ocean Kong (marine), and Book Kong (reading)—and complete their very own personalized storybook through this experiential program.

Jo Yujeong, Director-General of Busan’s Bureau of Women and Family Affairs, stated:
“This project, centered around the national anchor institutions in Gijang, Gangseo, and Yeongdo, is expected to create a hands-on cultural network that naturally introduces local characteristics and culture to children.
Furthermore, the public kids’ café opening this September at Busan Citizens Park will also be included in the collaboration, with plans to expand music programs in connection with the Busan Concert Hall,” she added.
