Busan developed as Korea’s key southern port—its wartime role and post-war boom shaped a city where fishing, trade, and modern development sit side by side.
Conservation
Coastal areas face marine debris and shoreline pressure from development; local guides encourage low-impact practices like carrying out trash and choosing sustainable seafood options.
