Singapore touts new tourism tagline to Seoul
The new tagline highlights the endless passion and venturous creativity of the country, in particular the seven lenses through which visitors to Singapore can experience the island: foodie, explorer, collector, action seeker, culture shaper, socializer and progressor.
For the opening event in Seoul, STB focused on the theme of “foodie,” with a range of programs related to food and cooking. Korean Chef Choi Hyun-seok presented an exotic recipe for “Fish Head Curry Pasta” with ingredients that could easily be found in Singapore, while Singaporean chef Janice Wong introduced her signature “dessert art” which not only looks beautiful, but also tastes good. Visitors also participated in a virtual reality experience called “Passion Kitchen.”
“We’re happy to be able to introduce our brand in Korea,” said Chang Chee Pey, president of STB. “We hope that through the new brand, ‘Passion Made Possible,’ we get across more stories of Singapore and that Korean tourists think of Singapore as a place where they can fulfill their passion.”
