[Yanolja Research Insights] Vol.26 Korea Tourism Destination Brand Equity: Model Development and Brand Performance Assessment

 Korea Tourism Brand Equity: Key Insights and Strategic Directions Current Status of Korea’s Tourism Brand Inbound tourism to Korea surged to 16.37 million in 2024, nearing pre-pandemic levels, with projections to surpass the 2019 record in 2025.
