Complaints are pouring out among visitors who have visited the Fisherman's Market, the first seafood festival organized by the CEO of Jongwon Baek Durbon Korea.
CEO Baek eventually apologized as the controversy grew due to a series of criticisms that proper control of the venue was not achieved amid heavy rain and crowds.The representative of
Baek said in a comment on his YouTube channel on the 4th, "We apologize to the many people who came to the Tongyoung Fisherman's Market Festival," adding, "We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused by the lack of rain cover in bad weather on the first day of the event, and for making you wait for a long time to enter the venue and purchase food."
The
Tongyeong Fisherman's Marketplace' festival is a seafood food festival held by CEO Baek's Dubon Korea and six fisheries cooperatives in the jurisdiction, and was held at Tongyeong Triathlon Square from the 1st to the 3rd.
Prior to the festival, CEO Baek said, "I prepared my first seafood festival because I like seafood as much as meat. We have prepared special festival food that we have never experienced before," he said, raising expectations by revealing the preparation for the festival.
However, there was a lot of bad criticism among visitors who went to the festival.The main content was that the response to the rainy weather of
was insufficient, and there were no people cleaning up even in long waiting conditions.
On the first day of the festival, heavy rain fell in Tongyeong due to the influence of Typhoon "Kongrey", and Tongyeong City reportedly decided not to set up a tent after consultation with Dubon Korea because of the risk of safety accidents if the wind blows strongly.
One netizen who visited the festival in person said, "There was no system at all. "I could experience that I would eat like this after the war," he said. "It's the first time since the military that I've eaten food while being hit by such a rain," he said. "It rained like crazy, and it was like a refugee camp without a tent."
Another netizen said, "I understand that traffic is blocked because it's a festival, but it took an hour to wait from the time I entered, and it took two hours to order food and it was a series of waiting." It seems that the preparation is insufficient for not being able to order due to the exhaustion of ingredients in the middle of the festival. I trusted the Jongwon Baek teacher, but I'm disappointed."
On the other hand, there were voices defending the Jongwon Baek, saying, "The food was done by Jongwon Baek, but Tongyeong operated it," and "Take it from the mayor of Tongyeong."
According to Tongyeong City, the festival attracted more than 300,000 visitors over three days, most of them outside tourists, and the venue attracted an all-time crowd.
