Lee Hak-soo, Mayor of Jeongeup City, stated, "What touches tourists visiting the Gujeolcho Flower Festival is not only the beautiful scenery but also the healthy food and honest service they can trust and eat. We will thoroughly manage the shops so that our region's excellent taste and products can be widely publicized." Jeongeup City has launched a high-intensity merchant selection system to protect the reputation of the Gujeolcho Flower Festival, which has established itself as a representative national autumn festival, and to fundamentally block rip-off price controversies pointed out as chronic diseases of public festivals every year.
The city announced that it is openly recruiting a total of 43 store operators to take charge of food and local specialties in the festival grounds ahead of the '19th Gujeolcho Flower Festival' held at the Jeongeup Gujeolcho Local Garden area from October 8 to 18. The recruitment scale consists of 9 general restaurants, 28 local specialty and food stands, and 6 food trucks. Application qualifications are limited to individuals, corporations, or organizations with a registered residence and actual living address in Jeongeup City as of the announcement date, and who are capable of legally reporting business operations, to protect the local commercial district. In particular, the city broke away from the existing method of relying solely on document screenings to upgrade the quality of the festival grounds. Instead, it plans to hold an on-site 'Food Quality Review Exhibition' evaluating the taste, visuals, and appropriate pricing of applicants to strictly select final operators. Selected merchants must complete mandatory sanitation and kind service training to receive exclusive operating spaces inside the venue.
At a time when local festivals across the country are stigmatized as 'rip-off festivals' and ignored by citizens due to the reckless entry of outside night market businesses and ridiculous price gouging, Jeongeup City's move to set a barrier to entry to local residents and introduce a evaluation system is evaluated as a highly timely and aggressive administrative measure. In particular, the determination to quantify and screen honest prices and taste quality rather than simple sanitation crackdowns is a politically smart move that heightens the sustainability of the festival.
However, critics point out that for the preliminary evaluation exhibition and strict selection process of these 43 stores to avoid ending up as event-driven control just before the opening, a 'one-stop reporting and compensation system (post-care)' capable of monitoring guerrilla-style price fluctuations or quality degradation that may occur on-site during the 11-day festival must be completed. This is because even if merchants presented appropriate prices in the selection stage, once the festival begins, tricky businesses like inducing cash payments or slyly reducing food portions are difficult to capture through public officials' intermittent enforcement manpower alone. Jeongeup City should step beyond one-dimensional administration that simply trains merchants, and operate a 'smart post-management system' that applies immediate refunds and three-strike-out systems upon rip-off price receipts through exclusive festival websites and on-site QR codes. Furthermore, only when a post-incentive structure is settled—such as selecting excellent shops after the festival ends to grant priority entry rights for the following year—will the city be able to sustain the reputation of the clean Gujeolcho festival that national tourists visit with peace of mind every year.
