Starbucks Korea has unveiled its first mobile coffee trailer, named 'S: Bokcha'. The trailer is designed to serve hard-to-reach areas and disaster zones. The presentation took place on April 22 at Yeouido Hangang Park in Seoul.

Korean brand DOD is launching a mobile camper van project for direct customer interaction at campsites. The van will tour campsites from late April through June, offering product displays, consultations, and tea ceremonies. The initiative aims to replace traditional store visits with on-site meetings at leisure locations.

Kumho Rentacar, a subsidiary of Kumho Development, has entered the market with camper van and business van rentals. The company unveiled two models: the "Dirado" camper with a compact toilet and a sofa bed for six, and a seven-seater business van equipped with a refrigerator and a multimedia system.

The first caravan styled like a traditional Korean hanok house has opened in Byeonsan National Park, South Korea. The accommodation costs from 50,000 won per night and can accommodate up to five people.

The Sodo Campground in Taebaeksan National Park opens on April 16 for the spring season. The 31,700 sq m facility features 18 sites for small caravans, 14 sites dedicated solely to caravans, and 48 sites for car camping, totaling 80 sites. A new stargazing program will be introduced this season.

Campers and caravans are occupying spaces for extended periods in the free public parking lot at Central Sports Park in Changwon, causing a shortage of parking. Under the revised Parking Lot Act effective from July 2024, authorities can issue movement orders and towing measures for vehicles parked long-term in public parking facilities.
