[Busan Yonhap News] Kim Jong-in, the head of South Korea's largest opposition party, "People's Power," chairman of the Emergency Response Committee, at a meeting of the committee on the 1st, proposed a new airport construction project on Gadeok Island off the coast of Busan in the southeastern part of the country. He said he would actively support the move, and said he would consider building an undersea tunnel to connect Kadeku Island and Kyushu.
“The construction of the new Gadeok Island airport will bring enormous employment and economic benefits,” Kim said, emphasizing that the airport will be developed into a “smart airport with global competitiveness.” He said he would provide legal and institutional support to create an environment for domestic technology and private capital investment.
The South Korea-Japan Undersea Tunnel Project is expected to have a much smaller financial burden than Japan's, with an additional production effect of 54.5 trillion won (approximately 5.1 trillion yen) and a large economic effect of creating employment for 450,000 people. I explained that it is a business that will be done.
