The city of Busan, in collaboration with the Busan Institute, held a 'Cultural Listening' event where fifty citizens discussed cultural policies and ideas, expressing their views on issues such as the cultural gap and the need for cultural access for all. The initiative is part of Busan's efforts to gather public opinion and include it in their regional cultural promotion plans, moving away from previously criticized unilateral policy-making. The event aims to collect input from citizens and artists for the development of a third implementation plan by 2030, addressing cultural resources, professional training, and governance.
