The Vice-President of the National assembly of the Republic of Korea, Park Joo Sun, arrived for an official visit in Dubrovnik today. He met with the Dubrovnik – Neretva County Mayor, Nikola Dobroslavic, and the Mayor of Dubrovnik, Mato Frankovic, and was interested in developing stronger relations in the field of tourism.
As Dobroslavić said, at the meeting, there was a desire from both sides to establish direct flights between South Korea and Dubrovnik.
- The number of Korean tourists in Dubrovnik is increasing and we are very happy that both sides want this to continue. The delegation from Korea expressed the desire for more Croatian citizens to visit Korea. We talked about the possibility of partnering the county with one of the regions or cities in Korea - said the Dobroslavic.
Mayor Frankovic pointed out that he was extremely pleased with the visit, and in particular the fact that more than 30,000 guests from Korea have visited Dubrovnik so far this year.
- This figure is on the rise. We need to have a better deal with Korea because obviously the potential of this market is extremely high - Frankovic said.
