[앵커]

The Hwacheon Sancheoneo Festival, one of the three largest winter festivals in the world, was canceled due to the spread of Corona 19.

As the Sancheoneo Festival, which equates to farming in Hwacheon, was canceled, the consumption of tens of tons of Sancheoneo fish prepared for the festival was blocked.

The frozen Hwacheon Creek is covered in white snow.

By now, preparations for the Sancheoneo Festival should be in full swing, but the streets are low.

This is because Hwacheon-gun decided not to hold the festival to avoid Corona 19.

This is the second time since the aftermath of foot-and-mouth disease in 2011, the Sancheoneo Fish Festival, one of the three largest winter festivals in the world, much like agriculture in Hwacheon, has been canceled.

All related budgets were also cut by the military council.

Instead, we decided to budget for the local economy, which would be hit hard.

The question is how to treat 77 tons of wild fish prepared for the festival.

It is not easy to secure a market because it is not a fish that is normally eaten.

In fact, Hwacheon-gun made fish cakes to treat the remaining wild fish after the festival and even used them as compost, but they all failed.

Hwacheon-gun is driving the development of new recipes like semi-dry stew and canned food.

As it becomes difficult to hold the summit successively from this year to the next, there are concerns about adverse effects on the reputation of Korea’s representative winter festivals.

To end this concern, we will not hold a festival, but we will continue to promote the festival through YouTube.

Hwacheon Sancheoneo Festival, the largest winter festival in Korea.

Due to an infectious disease of catastrophic degree, the true taste of winter provided by the festival will begin next winter.
