If a certain area on the sea is called a sea region, the islands, the coast, and even the inland, which are connected and influential to it can be called the Sea Region Network. Recently, the island has attracted attention like a marine territory, a treasure trove of resources, and a fascinating tourist spot. In particular, as people’s leisure styles diversify and demand island travel increases, links with land are also increasing. A typical example is Cheongsando island located in Wando. Cheongsando island, located at the southernmost tip of Dadohae, requires a one-hour boat ride from Wando port and is less accessible. However, it continued to publicize the Cheongsando island by making natural resources such as natural beauty, Gudeuljangnon (Gudeuljangnon; paddy field is imitative of Korean floor heating system), Chobun(Chobun; cover the body with grass to make a tomb, leave it for a year or three, and bury the bone again), and Haenyeo (Haenyeo; female diver) as common assets and putting beautiful natural scenery in video works. It was also recognized as Asia's first Slow City, drawing attention from people on land. It succeeded in creating a network with land by creating a Slow Path, holding a Slow Walking Festival and bringing them in. In this regard, this manuscript focused on Slow Tourism in Cheongsando island from the perspective of the Sea Region Network that leads to the island-sea-land. In other words, Cheongsando island is recognized as a Slow City and has created a Slow Path, and the Slow Walking Festival is attracting land people to Cheongsando island. These three elements, combined under the theme of “Slow,” are viewed as a direct means of forming and operating a network with land, while constructing Slow Tourism. Their meanings and roles, problems, and improvement plans were analyzed and their sustainability was sought.
