In Brief

Yeosu city has begun reclassifying roads near Guktong Port to combat illegal long-term parking of RVs and trucks. The measure aims to improve traffic ahead of the 2026 Yeosu Islands World Expo.

Authorities in Yeosu, South Korea, have started addressing the issue of long-term parking of RVs and trucks in the Guktong Port area. As of December 2025, about 20 RVs were recorded in the parking zone and on the pier, drawing complaints from residents over sanitation and visual blight. Despite administrative warnings issued on December 10, 2025, and the threat of forced eviction, the RVs remained.

Legal measures

To combat prolonged parking and double parking, the city has initiated a procedure to reclassify roads near Guktong Port as urban planning roads. This will provide a legal basis for imposing fines and towing vehicles. The process is expected to be completed by June 2026.

The measure is intended to improve the traffic situation ahead of the 2026 Yeosu Islands World Expo.
