South Korean National Network

Everything in creation has its own divine nature and life. We as humans need to exist in harmony with the rhythm of life in order to live full, happy lives. For humans, being slow in our lives is living in accordance with the pace of our minds. A truly advanced country is one which is led by its culture and art; it is a country that seeks to nurture harmony between nature, the arts, human beings and creatures plus the economy. We will devote ourselves to the development of unique characteristics of Corean Cittaslows, encouraging them to make the best use of creative attractiveness.

Slow Mind Slow Thinking!

With six Corean towns certified as in December 2007 and 2009 as the first Asian Cittaslows, Cittaslow Corea Network has an important mission, one that respects the highest values and ideas of the Cittaslow Charter: first, we guide Corean Cittaslows, recommend Cittaslow candidates and take care of the recertification of Corean Cittaslows; second, we promote Corean Cittaslows and expand the recognition; third, we exchange the matters of mutual concerns and experiences, and encourage networking between Cittaslow members from around the globe; and fourth, we contribute to the growth of the Slow Food movement across the nation. "Carpe diem and La vita è bella" can be more valuable in the fast-paced modern life, because "being slow is so beautiful and delightful." Corean Cittaslows need more love and support from all of you.
