Korea's Annual ODA Growth Rate - 3.2 Times Higher Than The Average of Other Members

Why is Korea best placed to host the World EXPO 2030, and why Busan as the host city? These were the key questions to be answered as Korea Week in Paris took place last week. Running from the 9th to the 15th, the event had three main parts, including the Busan World Expo Symposium, which was created to showcase Busan as the prime host city candidate. There was also a Fly to Busan promotion held near the Eiffel Tower, giving Parisiens and visitors to the city a chance to learn about Busan and immerse themselves in the city’s charm. The week concluded with a grand finale K-Pop concert called MCOUNTDOWN IN FRANCE.
Busan’s North Port was first opened in 1876 as Korea's first commercial trading port. It served as a critical lifeline during the Korean War, channeling UN troops and vital supplies from around the world to support Korea. And today, the North Port has been selected as the site for the World EXPO 2030 Busan. The influence of the port waned as new modern facilities were built.
