The new Daemyeong Port Seafood Direct Sales Center, currently under construction, will be a two-story building with a total floor area of 4,309 square meters. The first floor is being designed as a seafood sales space for local fishermen, while the second floor will serve as a rest area where citizens can enjoy views of the sea. The construction is underway with the goal of completion in December.


The city expects that the completion of the direct sales center will enhance the competitiveness of the local seafood industry and provide stay-type tourism services for visitors to Daemyeong Port, thereby revitalizing the fishing village economy and boosting local businesses.


Mayor Byungsoo Kim meticulously inspected the construction progress on site and listened directly to the voices of the fishermen, continuing a thorough review. He also checked the operation status of the musical fountain sculpture and visited the existing seafood direct sales center to encourage the fishermen and listen to citizens' opinions.


Mayor Byungsoo Kim stated, "The construction of the Daemyeong Port Seafood Direct Sales Center is an important project to increase fishermen's income, improve consumer convenience for citizens, and ultimately revitalize the local economy. We will actively provide administrative support to ensure the project is completed on schedule in December."
