After returning home,
"Fu Bao" will go here
According to the delivery plan announced by Everland in South Korea at the end of March, "Fu Bao" is scheduled to take a delivery vehicle from Panda World in the park to Incheon International Airport on April 3, local time.
According to reports, the car transporting "Fubao" is a special vehicle with "no vibration". The car will slow down from Panda World to the Rose Garden, providing fans with a chance to see them off, but fans will not be able to see the "Fubao" inside the car.
After arriving at Incheon International Airport, "Fu Bao" will transfer to a chartered flight provided by the Chinese side and fly back to China. Jiang Zheyuan, a Korean herb breeder who is affectionately called Grandpa Jiang by netizens, will take a chartered flight together to escort "Fubao" back to China and then back.
According to media reports, experts from the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda revealed that "Fubao" will first stay in the quarantine area at the Shenshuping base of the China Giant Panda Garden in Wolong, Sichuan, China, but the final place of residence after the quarantine has not yet been determined.

Deeply loved,
Honored as an Honorary Citizen of Korea
On July 20, 2020, as a symbol of China-South Korea friendship, the giant pandas "Aibao" and "Lebao" in South Korea gave birth to their first baby - "Fubao".
As the first giant panda born in South Korea, "Fu Bao" is deeply loved by the local people, and has many cute nicknames such as "Long Ren Fu Shi", "Fu Princess" and "Fu Dun Dun", and is a veritable "big star".
According to Yonhap News Agency, since January 4, 2021, "Fu Bao" has been in South Korea for more than 1,000 days and nights.
Everland's statistics also show that Panda Land has 5.4 million visitors, 2.7 million merchandise sales, and 500 million views of its "Fubao" video uploaded on social networks.
The photo essay collections "Baby Panda Fubao" and "Fubao, Happy Every Day", which record the growth story of "Fubao", also continue to sell well in South Korea. Grandpa Jiang, the breeder, lamented in the book that all the time with "Fubao" is full of happiness, and I believe that no matter who "Fubao" meets and where he goes, he will be happy in the future.
Not long ago, in order to express its love for "Fu Bao", Yongin City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, also issued a special honorary citizen certificate.
The certificate is made of bamboo, and it reads, "Superstar 'Bokbo', who was born in Yongin City in July 2020, has brought happiness to all (Korean) people." In order to treasure the fate of 'Fubao' and Yongin City, this certificate is hereby issued. ”

"Thank you for bringing so much laughter and happiness"
March 3, 2024 is the last day for "Fu Bao" to meet the Korean public. According to the relevant protection agreement signed between China and South Korea, "Fubao" must return to China before reaching the age of 4.
From the early morning of the 3rd, Everland, located in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, gathered "Fu Bao fans" from all over Korea.
Although the waiting time on the queue sign in the park was more than 6 hours, and due to the large number of visitors, the park limited the viewing time to 5 minutes per person, which still did not stop the enthusiasm of the visitors. People lined up to see Fu Bao again before he left.

There is also a large message board outside the panda world, with ballpoint pen drawings of giant pandas, and some messages read, "Fubao, it's good to have you!" "Thank you for bringing us a lot of laughter and happiness, and I hope you are healthy." ”
Giant panda keepers Grandpa Jiang and Grandpa Song presented Fubao with bouquets of rape flowers with carrots and panda dolls made of bamboo as farewell gifts.
Looking at the visitors who were reluctant to "Fu Bao", the two couldn't help but shed tears. Grandpa Jiang said to the fans at the scene, "We will take good care of Fubao and let it return to China smoothly." ”
