On October 22, a press talk was held to announce the launch of Yuseong Hot Springs' new brand, 'YUON.' Hosted by the public relations firm WalkintoKorea, the event took place in front of the Yuseong Hot Springs brand popup store. Media outlets such as Good Morning Chungcheong, Joongdo Ilbo, Break News, Weekly Hyundai, and Korea Welfare News attended the gathering.
The press talk at the Yuseong Hot Springs brand popup store featured discussions on the 'Yuseong Hot Springs District Tourism Hub Creation Project' and the new brand 'YUON,' along with its new mascot, 'YUONI.'

"The goal is to create content that appeals not only to those familiar with Yuseong but also to younger generations. We aim to integrate various local governance efforts rather than interpreting this project solely within the scope of our tasks," said Taehyung Lee, emphasizing the project's inclusivity from long-time Yuseong patrons to younger visitors unfamiliar with hot springs.
"The unique aspect of Yuseong Hot Springs is its urban setting, unlike other resorts. Residents of the city naturally seek out the hot springs, and we focused on branding this lifestyle," said Youngho Lee of Josely, highlighting the urban hot spring lifestyle as a distinctive feature.
As traditional hot spring tourism lost its appeal, Yuseong Hot Springs District's centrality wavered. However, the new brand development and the upcoming Yuseong Hot Springs Cultural Experience Center construction signify ongoing transformation. Deahoon Kang, CEO of WalkintoKorea, stressed, "Repositioning the declining Yuseong Hot Springs District with the new brand is essential to attract younger and global tourists," underscoring the importance of subsequent branding and marketing efforts.
This revitalized branding aims to breathe new life into the once-thriving Yuseong Hot Springs, making it a contemporary destination for both local and international visitors.
