Dear Visitor to the Busan Metropolitan City website,

Let me start by extending to you my sincerest welcome to our city.

The only way to enhance Busan’s competitiveness, while adapting to changes either at home or abroad, is to nurture homegrown talent, strive for technical innovation, and create a culturally attractive city.

We will make a “Healthy City Full of Happy Citizens,” where all people can live safely, creating a virtuous cycle of continued economic expansion, good job opportunities for everyone, and improved welfare and culture.

As the popularly elected mayor of Busan, I promise do my best to accomplish the goals we have set out to create a prosperous city for us all.

Thank you very much.
