During the event, Vinpearl and its partners, South Korean travel leaders Hanatour, Marketing Highlands, and HKG Co., Ltd., signed a strategic MoU to intensify their promotional activities for both Vinpearl's offerings and Vietnamese tourism.

Simultaneously, Vinpearl and its partners will ramp up their marketing efforts and broaden their distribution networks in South Korea. This will ensure a steady and reliable flow of customers, while also strengthening the long-term relationship between the companies.

The partnership will also extend Vinpearl's premium product ecosystem and introduce new destinations to over 7,500 retail travel agencies in South Korea, giving more than 46,000 golf members the chance to play and compete at Vinpearl's international-standard courses throughout Vietnam.

The agreement between Vinpearl and its three South Korean partners not only opens a new chapter in their strategic cooperation but also marks a significant milestone in Vinpearl's journey toward deeper international integration.
