Due to the influence of Typhoon Kanun, which is heading north toward the Korean Peninsula, 37,000 participants of the ‘2023 Saemangeum World Scout Jamboree’ began to withdraw from the Saemangeum camp at 10:00 am on the 8th. Until the government announced the emergency evacuation plan the day before, it seemed that all Jamboree participants would move to the metropolitan area, but some participants decided to stay in the Jeonbuk area. Summarizing the Hankyoreh coverage on the 8th, the Jamboree participants move to facilities that can provide lodging and lodging in Cheongju, North Chungcheong Province, Cheonan, Daejeon, and Sejong, South Chungcheong Province, in addition to areas in the metropolitan area such as Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon. However, participants from Arab countries decided to live in a facility in Jeonbuk. The Saemangeum World Scout Jamboree Organizing Committee (Organizing Committee) said, “Until now, the company in charge of providing food in the Jamboree camp has been providing ‘halal’ food for the delegation from Arab countries. Judging by the decision, the national delegation, whose participants eat halal food, decided to stay in the Jeonbuk region.” Halal food is food that is permitted to be eaten by Muslims according to Islamic law.
