The two-and-a-half-hour-old Tsushima arrived in Korea by boat, and it was crowded with Korean tourists until the Japanese government announced the export regulation on Korea on the 1st of last month.

Most of the 410,000 foreign tourists who visited Tsushima, a city with a population of 30,000, were Koreans.

But the situation has changed completely since July.

The number of Korean tourists decreased by 36.2% last month, and it is decreasing even more in August.

The main streets where Koreans are crowded are empty and reservation is rare.

There are no bookings in August for one of the 300 hotels booked in July.

[Tsushima Ryokan: The booker is completely blank until August. I do not have a reservation, so I do not need a roster in August.]

The same goes for the restaurants that Korean tourists are looking for.

[Tsushima Restaurant Worker: It has a big influence on sales. (Tsushima (game) itself seems to be broken.)]

Restaurants run by Koreans have been completely cut off and the business sector has to be seriously considered.

Car rental companies Cars that can not pick up guests are full of parking lots.

[Tsushima car rental company president: I'm going to take out all of them. I'm trying to keep the expenses out.]

Cultural events were also directly influenced.

On the other hand, the number of attendees at the Korean side has decreased to half.

The ship that reproduced the boat that the former passenger company that was dispatched from Korea every year was reproduced year after year also hides its appearance this year.

A little over a month has passed since Japanese export controls on Korea began.

However, the tourist industry in Japan, which Koreans enjoyed, has been unable to speak to a serious situation.
