BPA presented the background, promotion process, and future plans of the Busan Port North Port redevelopment project, which transforms the outdated urban port facilities into a citizen-friendly waterfront space and an international marine tourism and cultural district. They also introduced plans to establish a fully automated terminal at the Busan New Port's Seacon Pier (phases 2 to 5), scheduled to open this year.
