Hello! This is Gimhae Tourism.

The expansive natural scenery is always breathtaking and provides peace of mind just by looking at it.

Today, we're introducing three spots in Gimhae's Janggun Tea Fields where you can enjoy nature and heal in the middle of lush green tea fields, and experience various activities that are difficult to experience in everyday life, such as tea picking, tea making, and tea ceremony.

Before visiting the Janggun Tea Fields, it would be better to know about the history and origin of Janggun Tea, right?

Janggun Tea, a specialty of Gimhae, is a type of southern broad-leaf tea and is known as a famous tea representing Gimhae, having won awards at world-renowned tea competitions.

The first traditional tea in Korea, Gimhae's specialty Janggun Tea, began when Princess Heo Hwang-ok of Ayuta, India, brought tea seeds as part of her dowry when she came to marry King Suro in 48 AD.

The origin of the name: The origin of the special name Janggun Tea goes back to the Goryeo Dynasty! King Chungnyeol saw a tea tree growing in Gimhae Geumgangsa Temple and called it 'Janggunsu'.

Unique Tea Flavor: The refreshing and rich tea aroma and the subtly felt sweet umami flavor are excellent and well-received.

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
