魅力首尔－竞争大无限

简介∶风靡全球的PSY大叔、世界最佳评鉴的仁川机场、三星智慧型手机市占率全球第一......他们的共通点就是韩国首都首尔。这个让韩流走向世界的都市能崛起的关键为何？精采内文，不要错过！
 
Seoul Power
 
While it might still lack the punching power of its neighbors Beijing and Tokyo, Seoul is rapidly emerging from the shadows of the Asian heavyweights.
 
One area in which the South Korean capital is quickly picking up momentum is its tourism industry. The city is set to host a record 10 million visitors by the end of this year, most of whom will filter through Incheon International Airport, which has been ranked the best in the world for five years straight.
 
The city has worked hard to emphasize its unique blend of tradition and modernity, but its real trump card lies in entertainment-based tourism. Over 80 percent of tourists to Seoul are Asian, and many of them are Korean wave obsessives — a fact not lost on the authorities. The Korean Tourism Organization devotes comprehensive sections of its Web site to K-pop, as well as movies and dramas. These include the vital statistics of the “idols,” as well as guides to set locations and information about tours. Banners posted up around Seoul announce filming hotspots, and there are plans to create a street in Gangnam devoted entirely to the entertainment industry.
 
 
魅力首尔－竞争大无限
 
尽管仍缺乏其近邻北京与东京的威力，首尔正从这些亚洲重量级选手的阴影中快速崛起。
 
让南韩首都势力迅速抬头的一个范畴是旅游业。首尔在今年年底将迎接纪录性的一千万人次旅客，其中多数从仁川国际机场涌入，这座机场已连续五年获选为全球最佳机场。
 
首尔向来致力於传统与现代的独特融合，但其真正的王牌是以娱乐业为主轴的观光。来到首尔的旅客有八成为亚洲人，其中有很多是韩流的超级粉丝——有关当局也并未忽略此项事实。韩国观光公社在其网站刊登各项韩国流行乐、电影与戏剧的消息。这包括「偶像们」的重要数据，以及影片拍摄地点的指南与旅游资讯。在首尔到处张贴的横幅广告说明拍摄的热门景点，江南区则有计画要打造一条和娱乐产业相关的街道。
