Chungju asks RV owners to vacate stadium parking by June 9
Original source: 전국도민뉴스 / (前)세종매거진

In Brief

Authorities in Chungju (North Chungcheong Province, South Korea) have asked owners of RVs, campers, and other large vehicles to vacate the Chungju Stadium parking lot by June 9, 2026, to prepare for the '2026 Chungju Dive Festival with MyK FESTA' (June 11–14).

The city of Chungju (North Chungcheong Province, South Korea) has asked owners of RVs, caravans, campers, and other large vehicles to vacate the parking areas of Chungju Stadium by June 9, 2026. The request is made in preparation for the '2026 Chungju Dive Festival with MyK FESTA,' scheduled for June 11–14.

An inspection revealed that parts of the parking lot are occupied by RVs, large buses, trucks, and construction equipment. Authorities fear this could cause serious parking shortages and inconvenience for festival visitors. Last year, unattended RVs and trailers already created a shortage of spaces.

Since RVs are classified as private trucks, administrative enforcement measures (such as fines) are limited. Therefore, authorities are relying on voluntary cooperation from citizens.

M-TOS RV CEO Interview: Creating a New Lifestyle, Not Just a Camper

South Korean company M-TOS RV, which specializes in detachable campers for pickup trucks, aims to change how vehicles are used. CEO Choi Gi-soo stated that the company's goal is not just to build campers but to create a new lifestyle, allowing one vehicle to serve both work and leisure. The company develops a system where a camper can be mounted on a pickup only when needed, leaving the truck usable for daily tasks otherwise. M-TOS RV claims to be the only company in Korea legally permitted to modify vehicle structures for camper installation and holds four patents for its tie-down systems.

Reopening of Gyeyang Duri Camping Site and water park construction face uncertainty

Incheon's Gyeyang District is struggling to reopen the Duri Camping Site in Gyulhyeon-dong and build a water park there. The project is stalled because two procedures block each other: obtaining a river occupancy permit from the Han River Basin Environmental Office requires budget, while securing a special grant from the Ministry of the Interior and Safety requires the permit. As a result, the local council cut the entire 528 million won budget in the first supplementary budget, and the permit review has been suspended. District officials say if the water park cannot be built, the entire reopening plan must be reconsidered. The original target of reopening by June 2027 is now unlikely, and even a post-2028 opening depends on budget availability.

K-camping: regulations lag behind market

South Korea's camping market is rapidly shifting toward glamping, caravans and dome houses, but the legal framework still treats all camping as tent-based. A seminar hosted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the National Assembly discussed the unclear legal status of new camping types, building area limits (currently 10% of site or 300 sq m in protected areas) and inconsistent local permit enforcement. Issues with foreign tourist booking and payment barriers, lack of multilingual safety information, and unregistered campsites were also highlighted.
