8th Korea Camping Car Show to be held in Busan

Busan is running the '2026 Busan Mobility Show' from June 26 to July 5 at BEXCO, featuring land, sea, and air vehicles including RVs, campers, and EVs. A special outdoor exhibition of RV tuning cars and campers is held on Haeundae Gunam-ro for four days. Organizers say the shift from a traditional motor show to a comprehensive mobility event is a necessary survival strategy.
