Professor Kang Duk-soo is a frequent visitor in Yakutia, he is one of the founders of the Sakha-Korean school, creator of dozens of scientific papers about Yakutia, and he translated the olonkho epics into Korean. Now, after making a significant contribution to the republic formation, he decided to take up its promotion as a tourist "Mecca" among his countrymen.

Professor Kang group included owners and managers of major travel companies in South Korea, representatives of universities and large industrial enterprises, such as the concern "Hyundai». The delegation spent a week in the vast republic, passed all the popular routes. Particular attention was paid to Khangalas district, where the Koreans visited the Lena Pillars, bizonary "Ust-Buotama", National Complex "Orto Doydu" and sand dunes "Tukulana."

According to the travel agency top manager Lee Sang-Taek, Yakutia has a vast tourism potential, which is interesting to the residents of Korea. Ironically, the fall of the ruble exchange rate will contribute to the mass flow of those wanting to touch the wild north of Russia. In general, foreigners were "hooked" by charming beauty of Olonkholand, and they plan to establish close contacts with the local entrepreneurs soon.

In connection with the difficult relationship with the West, Yakutia tourist sight turned to the East. One of the reasons was that a group of tourists from Britain and Germany, having booked a cruise on route "Yakutsk-Tiksi", refused from the travel at the last moment. More likely, tourists from the Asia-Pacific region will take the empty segment.
