In South Korea, restoration efforts for areas affected by wildfires are evolving beyond mere cleanup. The Korean Tourism Organization and social media influencers are participating in 'fertilagging' on the Korea Dulegil and Gyeongbuk Yeongdeok trails. 'Fertilagging', a blend of 'Fertilizer' and 'Jogging', involves planting trees, fertilizing them, and trekking to revive landscapes and promote local tourism. This initiative aims to restore the forests on the haebaranggil trails severely impacted by fires. Furthermore, a campaign called 'Traveling for Hope, Reborn Yeongdeok' is encouraging people to support these regions by visiting them, which also helps local economies.
