Yeosu Romantic Pocha's Resolution to Eradicate 'Overcharging'

Campaign for Honest and Friendly Operation of Romantic Pocha at Yeosu Marine Park to Nangman Pocha Street Area on the 14th

The Yeosu City Romantic Pocha Operation Council in Jeollanam-do pledged to operate honest and friendly romantic pochas while conducting a campaign to eradicate overcharging and improve courteous service on the afternoon of the 14th around Yeosu Marine Park and Romantic Pocha Street.

According to Yeosu City on the 14th, recently, Yeosu's romantic pochas have been tarnishing the reputation of Yeosu's representative tourist content due to overcharging and the sale of small beer bottles (300ml) by some pochas.

In response, the Yeosu City Romantic Pocha Operation Council held an internal meeting on the 12th to identify problems and derive improvement measures, discussing various ways to revitalize the image.

At this meeting, some pochas that had been selling small beer bottles (330ml) reflected on the damage to the romantic pocha image caused by this practice and decided to sell large beer bottles (500ml) going forward to become pochas without visitor complaints.

Furthermore, at 2 p.m. on the 14th, 18 council members led a campaign to eradicate overcharging and improve courteous service around Yeosu Marine Park and Romantic Pocha Street, taking the lead in creating an atmosphere of price stability.

Yeosu City actively participated in this campaign and separately conducted campaigns from 4 p.m. to prevent food poisoning and stabilize prices. In addition, continuous guidance and inspections will be carried out to eradicate unfair trade practices, focusing efforts on creating a "Yeosu that visitors want to return to."

Jung Il-young, chairman of the Yeosu City Romantic Pocha Council, said, "As the summer vacation season begins in earnest, we will do our best to operate pochas so that visitors to Yeosu can enjoy their time at romantic pochas with peace of mind," adding, "We will maintain the reputation as Yeosu's representative tourist content by providing improved services and safe food."

Meanwhile, the "Yeosu Night Sea Romantic Pocha" opened in 2016 and has been operating for seven years, with operations scheduled for one year from March this year to February next year.
