In order to prevent crowds from crowding, we decided to control access at all.

New Year's Day, Hyangilam, Yeosu, the best sunrise spot in Korea, attracts more than 40,000 people.



You won't be able to see this on January 1st next year.



This is because the Hyangilam Sunrise Festival was canceled and the access was completely controlled to prevent crowds from gathering at sunrise.



[Imgobun/Yeosu, a merchant near Hyangilam: It is unfortunate that the business was not successful, but it was canceled.

It's because of the corona, so you have to keep your distance and be careful.]



All 13 local governments in Jeollanam-do that had planned for the New Year's Eve due to the influence of Corona 19 canceled the event.



The Suncheon Bay National Garden, Goheung Namyeol, Haenam, and the Boseong Yulpo Beach Fireworks Festival, which received great response last year, were also canceled.



The new year's battering ceremony, which was held every year at Yudal Mountain in Mokpo, has also been stopped.



Local governments in Jeonnam said that the prevention of corona infection was the top priority, and asked tourists to understand and refrain from moving.



[Kwon Obong/Yeosu Market: I know that there are so many tourists who will come to Yeosu for the sunrise.

It is unfortunate that the corona spreading trend is so fast, but it was canceled at sunset this year.

Please refrain from visiting Yeosu.]



Jeonnam-do decided to further strengthen the prevention of sunrise spots and show the new year's sunrise online.
