Local Information
Jeungdo, Asia's first Slow City, has been practicing the preservation of an ecosystem made up of various halophytes. Recognized for its natural value, it has been designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a Ramsar International Wetland. It was also selected by CNN as one of the top 10 most beautiful places in South Korea. Taepyeong Salt Farm and Bogglemansion operate an international residency as part of the Salt-like Art project. For a period of approximately 3 to 6 months, various artists from Korea and abroad reside and interact, centering around Sumui House. They capture the life of the salt farms, imbued with the unique natural environment and Slow City identity of Jeungdo, through the eyes of the artists.
