The Bye Bye Plastic campaign, which includes the English expression "Bye Bye" meaning farewell, aims to reduce unnecessary plastic use and promote responsible consumption. It was launched by the Ministry of Environment on June 5th in observance of World Environment Day.

Participants take photos holding signs with the campaign slogan and upload them to social networking services (SNS), then recommend the next participant to join.

On that day, Chief Ok recommended Jeong Do-geun, Chairman of the Samcheonpo Fisheries Cooperative, as the next participant.

He said, "To protect the marine environment, including preventing damage to marine ecosystems caused by plastic, active participation and interest from not only fishermen but all citizens are necessary in reducing plastic use in daily life."
