Awarding of the Governor's Commendation to meritorious persons in the marine and fisheries sector and the reading of the 'Sea Charter' by a representative fisherman took place, along with the release of fishery seeds and coastal cleanup activities.


In the fishery seed release event, 24,000 rockfish and 40,000 sea cucumbers were released. Among these, the sea cucumber seeds were sponsored by the Korea Sea Cucumber Association Gyeongnam Branch. This served as an opportunity to contribute to the enhancement of fishery resources and to reaffirm the fishermen's determination to protect marine resources themselves.


Additionally, members of the Korea.net Overseas Cultural Promotion Center and the Foreign Honorary Reporters who visited Namhae-gun participated in the fishery seed release event and coastal cleanup activities, promoting the cleanliness of the Namhae Sea and the excellence of Namhae-gun’s seafood.



Deputy Governor Ryu said, “Namhae-gun is doing its best to create a clean and pleasant marine environment and to revitalize the marine and fisheries industry, making it a vibrant fishing village overflowing with tourists all year round,” adding, “We will work even harder with marine and fisheries people to create a collaborative sea and a valuable fishing village.”
