Lets Go Busan Sports Portal Launch Enhances Access To Local Facilities

As South Korea continues to grapple with the challenges of balanced regional development, the cities of Busan and Incheon have emerged as symbolic competitors in a system still dominated by the gravitational pull of Seoul.

Busan will host the 10th Our Ocean Conference and 5th APEC Ocean Ministers’ Meeting, uniting global leaders to accelerate action on marine protection, climate resilience, and digital transformation in ocean governance.

Relocating the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries to Busan has long been promised but never delivered. What’s holding it back, and what would it take to finally make it happen?
