Introduction
 
This festival, held in Busan, is a spirited celebration of the spring and the ocean. The word ‘Eobang’ is a word describing the lively attitude of the fishermen in the coastal regions, and the deep meaning of this name is reflected in the festival. Not only are many popular tourist destinations, such as Gwangalli Beach and the Gwangan Bridge, located nearby, but visitors of the festival can even try catching fish with their bare hands, take part in a cooking contest, or sample a wide selection of interesting cuisine! Many people come here especially to eat Busan’s fresh raw fish at incredibly low prices.This festival, held in Busan, is a spirited celebration of the spring and the ocean.
