Spend a day with 2PM and miss A in Korea!

Do you want to visit Korea? Do you want to hang out with 2PM and miss A?
If you’ve answered yes to either of those questions, or to both, then you’re in luck, for the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) has partnered up with popular idol groups, 2PM and miss A, to hold an exclusive contest with prizes you won’t want to miss out on!
As mentioned before, seven winners will receive a Korea-tour package consisting of a five-day tour of Korea (airfare, lodging, and transportation all paid for), and will also get a chance to hang out with the members of 2PM and miss A, while visiting hot tourist spots and solving assigned missions together. Could it get any better than that?
Yes it can, for KTO is also providing the winners with a Korea Pass gift card worth 5 million KRW. This gift card is accepted by over 7,300 affiliates including museums, select tourist spots, as well as duty free shops, and can also be used for public transportation.
With the previous announcement of the contest, some have already uploaded their videos expressing their love for Korea or K-pop, or even remaking the “Touch Korea Tour” song by 2PM and miss A, which you can check out on their homepage here.
The deadline to submit a video is May 2nd, and online voting will take place from May 8th through the 11th to narrow down the top seven entries. The winners will be announced on May 18th for the tour that will take place in June.
Joining the contest is simple, just record a video using one of the ideas below:
- Watch the commercial or listen to the “Touch Korea Song” above, and make your own version of it (the song can be downloaded through the homepage)
- Introduce Korean dishes, shopping districts, activities to do, etc. highlighting Korean cultures, or enter a video of your previous Korean travels, if you’ve visited before
- Show why you would like to visit Korea, or why you are the ideal candidate to star in a video with 2PM & miss A
- Or just express your love for Korean culture and/or K-Pop!
and enter your submission by clicking the [SUBMIT A VIDEO] button.

That’s it! All videos deviating from the original purpose of this event and those with copyright problems will be deleted without prior notice. All entries must be submitted by May 2nd 2012, and contestants may submit more than one video.
Be sure to also visit the official site often, as you’ll be able to receive constant updates on the campaign, as well as teaser videos and music featuring 2PM and miss A.
