Ferry from Incheon to Jeju which was discontinued after the "Sewol ferry disaster" will operate again in June 2019

A new operator has been decided recently and a thorough preparation for a safe waterway has begun.

Incheon Port has 12 passenger ship routes such as Baekryeong Island and Yeonpyeong Island, but the passenger ship connecting Incheon to Jeju Island has been stopped running for 4 years since the Sewol ferry incident in 2014.

Due to the constant request from Incheon and Seoul customers, a company operating a 'Pohang - Ulleungdo' route was selected as a new operator of 'Jeju route' ferry at Incheon port.

The Incheon port Office said that among the seven applicants, it was the only company with good financial stability and experience in operating passenger ships.

The company plans to operate ship of 24,000 tons class, which is 3.5 times bigger than "Sewol ferry", from June next year.
The ship which was built two years ago will carry 1,500 passengers and 120 vehicles and can travel 40 kilometers per hour.

As the interest in safety has been higher than ever before since the disaster, we need more thorough preparations such as the expansion of the pier and the safety of night driving.

Why are the Korean flag and Pepsi logo so similar?


The opening ceremony of the Pyeongchang Olympic Games was a success. It showed a drone olympic flag, human face shaped bird and wonderful appearance of figure queen Kim Yuna who lighted the olympic flame.

It is said that a lot of foreign netizens who watched Korean flag, Taegeukgi for the first time on this ceremony showed confusion and wondered about its relation to Pepsi logo in SNS.

Few years ago, there was a hypothesis that the logo of Pepsi is very similar to the pattern of Tai Chi, and that the person who made the name 'Pepsi' is Korean.
This rumor says that Pepsi held a public contest for its name and final contestant came up with name "pep" which is sound of opening bottle and "si" which is sound after opening pepsi can.
This contest winner who is Korean suggested pepsi logo which is similar to Korean flag as well.
This rumor in Korea turned out to be false of course.

In reality Pepsi changed its red logo color to red, blue, white for war support in the wake of the American War of the 1940s, and after that it changed its logo shape to a pattern which is similar to Tai Chi.

And the official PyeongChang 2018 Olympics sponsor is not Pepsi, but its rival, Coca-Cola.
