In addition, it provides comprehensive travel support services, including rest areas, accommodation and transportation booking, and the “C-PASS” shopping voucher program, further enhancing the overall travel experience and satisfaction of international visitors to Cheongju. Coinciding with the lounge opening, Beautiful-C Festa 2025 will be held for two days, from November 8 to 9, in the area surrounding Cheoldanggan Square and Seongan-gil. The festival, themed “Like a Journey in Daily Life,” features a variety of programs that both tourists and locals can enjoy together. The festival includes beauty experience booths, performances by K-beauty influencers, random dance events, and various attractions. It also incorporates C-PASS-based events, shopping rewards, and a supporters’ familiarization tour to actively draw visitors to Seongan-gil, Seomun Market, and Sonamu-gil, thereby promoting local businesses.
