A. General Information This chapter provides general information on Korea,Yeosu city, and the Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea to helpparticipants to understand the overall situation of thehost county, the host city as well as the Exposition.

1. Korea, the Host Country

1.1 Location

The Korean peninsula is located in North-east Asia. It isbordered by the Amnok River (Yalu River) to the northwest, separating Korea from China, and theDuman River (Tumen River) to the northeast whichseparates Korea from both China and Russia. The country is surrounded by the sea on its threefronts. Administratively, the Republic of Korea consistsof nine provinces (do); the capital of Seoul; the sixmetropolitan cities of Busan, Daegu, Incheon,Gwangju, Daejeon, and Ulsan, and an additional 75cities (si) and 86 counties (gun) as of 2010. Korea’stotal land area is 100,033 sq. km. Korea is 9 hoursahead of UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). i.e., when it is midnight (00:00) UTC, it is 9 am (09:00)Korea Standard Time. Korea does not currently observe daylight saving time. Korea Standard Time is the same as Japan Standard Time, Indonesian Eastern Standard Time and Yakutsk Time.

1.2 Climate

Korea has four seasons, with a wet monsoon/summerseason in the middle of the year, and a cold winterfrom November to March. The ideal time to visit Koreais during the autumn months (September-November).During this time, the country experiences warm, sunnyweather, skies that are cobalt blue and spectacularfoliage that is perhaps the biggest draw. Winters arecold and dry and are a good time to visit if you areinterested in winter sports as there are numerous skiresorts. Spring (April-May) is also beautiful with all thecherry blossoms in bloom. However, it is very busyand one needs to book in advance to ensure

accommodation is available. The summer months aremuggy and hot, and rather crowded. It is also whenthe monsoon season begins so many activities aresubject to the fluctuations of heavy rain. Geographically, Korea is located between 33˚ and 43˚north latitude, and 124˚ and 131˚ east longitude.

1.3 Population

As of Nov. 2011, the population of the Republic ofKorea stood at 50,717,719, including 918,917 foreignresidents, ranking 25th in the world.

1.4 Economy

Korea’s GNI per capita stands at US$ 20,759 as of2010. Korea’s rapid economic development and democratization after the 1960s led the country to become the 29th member nation of the OECD in 1996. It is now a global force in a number of significant industries, including information technology, shipbuilding, automobiles, and petrochemicals.

1.5 Seoul, the Capital City

The capital city of Seoul is located at the center of theKorean peninsula, and it remains the capital since1392. The city is home to about 10,257,741 residentsas of Nov. 2011, which make up 20.2 percent of thetotal population of Korea. Seoul’s total land area is605.15 sq. km., which accounts for 0.6 percent of thecountry’s total land area.

1.6 Culture and History

Due to its characteristics as a peninsula embracingboth the continent and the ocean, the unique cultureof Korean people has been carried on with its 4,000years of history.

The world’s first movable metal type developed inKorea during the Goryeo Dynasty, and the JoseonDynasty produced Hangeul, the Korean alphabet, in 1443. Many cultural properties such as Seokguram



Grotto and Bulguksa Temple are registered on theUNESCO World Cultural Heritage List.

1.7 Customs

1.7.1. Family Life

Traditionally in Korea, the typical family size is quitelarge, with three or four generations usually livingtogether under the same roof. Because infantmortality was high and a big family was thought ofas a blessing, having many children was the desiredoption. However, as the country underwent rapidindustrialization and urbanization during the 1960sand 1970s the pattern was accompanied by aneffective birth control drive, and the average numberof children in a family dramatically decreased to twoor less in the 1980s.

Having a long Confucian tradition under which theeldest son takes over as head of the family, manyKorean families preferred having a son. To tackle theproblem of male preference, the government hascompletely rewritten family-related laws in a waythat ensures equality for sons and daughters in termsof inheritance.

1.7.2 Names

The majority of Koreans have family names within oneof a small set: Kim (about 21% of all Koreans), Yi (orLee or Rhee, 14%), Park (or Pak, 8%), Choi (or Choe),Jeong (or Chung), Jang (or Chang), Han, Lim, etc. AKorean name consists of a family name, in almostevery case one syllable, plus a given name usually oftwo syllables. The family name comes first. A Koreanwoman does not take her husband's family name, buttheir children take their father's family name.

1.7.3. Ancestral Memorial Rite (Jerye)

According to traditional Korean beliefs, when peopledie, their spirits do not immediately depart; they staywith their descendants for four generations. Duringthis period the deceased are still regarded as family

members, and Koreans reaffirm the relationshipbetween ancestors and descendants through jerye onspecial days like Sollal (Lunar New Year’s Day) andChuseok (Korean Thanksgiving Day), as well as on theanniversary of their ancestors' passing. Koreans alsobelieve that people can live well and happily thanks tobenefits their ancestors bestow upon them.

1.7.4. Korean Food

A diverse array of food and dishes can be foundthroughout Korea.Korea was once primarily an agricultural nation, cultivating rice as their staple food since ancient times.These days Korean cuisine is characterized by a widevariety of meat and fish dishes along with wild greensand vegetables. Various fermented and preservedfood, such as kimchi (fermented spicy cabbage), jeotgal (matured seafood with salt) and doenjang(fermented soy bean paste) are notable for theirspecific flavor and high nutritional value.

1.7.5. Gimjang

Gimjang is the age-old Korean practice of preparingwinter kimchi, which has been passed down fromgeneration to generation. Kimchi is fermented food,which contains a lot of lactic acid bacteria that aremade when cabbage is salted. Even in the past whenrefrigerators were not available, Koreans were able toenjoy kimchi fresh from crock jars because the jarsburied underground slowed down fermentationprocess. For Koreans, a dinner table without kimchiis unthinkable.

1.7.6. Traditional Korean Clothing (Hanbok)

The hanbok has been the Korean people's uniquetraditional costume for thousands of years. The beauty and grace of Korean culture can be seenin photographs of women dressed in the hanbok.

Before the arrival of Western-style clothing onehundred years ago, the hanbok was worn as everydayattire. Men wore jeogori (Korean jackets) with baji



(trousers) while women wore jeogori with chima(skirt). Today, the hanbok is worn on days ofcelebration such as weddings, Seollal (Lunar NewYear's Day) or Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving Day.

1.7.7. Korean Traditional Houses

A traditional Korean house is called hanok. Hanoksought to create a living space based on thecoexistence of nature and humans. Accordingly, the natural aspects of traditional Korean houses rangefrom the structure's inner layout to the buildingmaterials which were used. Another unique feature oftraditional houses is their special design for cooling theinterior in the summer and heating the interior in thewinter. Since Korea has such hot summers and coldwinters, the ondol gudeul, a floor-based heatingsystem and daecheong, a cool wooden-floor style hall,were devised long ago to help Koreans survive thefrigid winters and to make the sweltering and humidsummers bearable. These primitive types of heatingand air-conditioning were so effective that they arestill in use in many homes today.

1.8 Experiences in International Events

1.8.1. 1988 Seoul Olympics

159 nations were represented by 8,465 athletes at the1988 Seoul Olympics, with the largest number ofparticipating nations at the time. It provided a stagefor athletes from all over the world to participate,

promoting harmony and world peace, and for Koreato present itself in the global community.

1.8.2 Taejon International Exposition Korea 1993

The first international Expo to be held in a developingcountry, the Taejon Expo introduced cutting-edgescience technologies including maglev trains, displaying Korea’s successful industrialization.

108 countries and 33 international organizationsparticipated in the Taejon Expo attracting 14 million

visitors, exceeding the original goal.

1.8.3 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea Japan

At the first FIFA World Cup in the 21st century, theKorean national team reached the semifinals for thefirst time in its history. Passionate, yet organized streetgatherings of the Korean people caught the eye offoreign press and became international news.

3.1.5. Expected Number of Visitors

Around 8 million visitors, some 100 countries andinternational organizations are expected to take partin Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea.

3.2. Purpose

The theme of the Expo is “The Living Ocean andCoast: Diversity of Resources and SustainableActivities.” The hosting of the Expo will underlinethe importance of the endangered oceans and coasts, assist with humankind’s more accurate understandingof the current crisis. It will also create momentum forgreater synergy between nature and humankind, advanced and developing countries, and thegenerations of today and tomorrow, in order to leadto a prosperous future through development andpreservation.

3.2.1. New Understanding of the Values of theOceans and Coasts

The sea occupies 71% of the earth’s surface. It ishome to more than 10 million species, which accountsfor about 90% of all life on earth. The oceanscontribute to the survival of all life on earth.

The growing climate change issue stresses theimportance of the oceans. The sea is determinant tothe earth’s environment by controlling the demand,supply, and movement of planet generated heat. The oceans also absorb about half of the CO2 produced by humankind.

Around 40% of the world’s population lives in coastalareas, within 60 km from the coastlines. The coastsare a critical region in socio-economic terms as theyact as the center of economic activity, due to harborsand industrial complexes, and vacation spots fortourism and leisure activities.

In addition, mud flats are ecologically essential ashabitats for all kinds of mollusks, crustaceans, andfish.

Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea will strive to establish a newunderstanding about the value and significance of theearth’s oceans and coasts and solve the pending issuesfacing humankind, such as climate change and thedestruction of the ecosystem.


3.2.2. Wiser Use of the Seas

Pollution of the seas and the destruction of the ecosystemcaused by industrial activities have already led to thedepletion and overfishing by 3/4 of the world’s fisheries.

The environmental changes brought on by thepollution of the seas progresses very slowly, and mostof the time, their true impact is recognized too late.There is an acute need to learn about the extent ofsuch environmental changes and to respond swiftly.

In addition, abnormalities induced in the climatechange mechanism due to environmental pollutionis leading to abnormal weather conditions, includingdroughts, typhoons, cold waves, hurricanes and risingsea levels. Indeed, damage caused by such examplescan be seen across the world.

Therefore, Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea will strive to urgefor the sustainable, wise use of the oceans and searchfor a common solution to the challenges facinghumanity, namely the depletion of marine resourcesand climate change.

3.2.3. Encouragement of Joint Efforts

The issues of sustainable development andpreservation of the diverse environmental ecosystemsare grave challenges to the survival of humankind.

Such global issues cannot be resolved by the efforts ofone country alone and require the joint efforts of allhumankind.

Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea shall establish a way toharmoniously develop and preserve the oceans andcoasts. In the time leading up to the Exposition, andduring the Expo period, seminars and forums will beorganized and attract the participation of internationalorganizations, academic institutions, associations,NGOs, and scholars in the related fields.

These efforts will provide a leap forward in theknowledge, technology, experience, and vision of

human society for the creation of a harmoniousbalance between preservation and developmentof the seas.

3.5.2. Expo Site Space Allocation Principle

The Expo site will actively incorporate the historicaland regional qualities of the Yeosu New Port Area andthe theme of the Expo. It will thus be built on theconceptual basis of “ocean” “coast” and “city-hometo humankind.” These considerations will be evidentand embedded on the Expo site; indeed, a conceptualaxis linking the three considerations shall lead visitorsto the exhibition and event facilities.

The space allocation principle reflecting the natural,geographical, and urban conditions of the Expo site

will transform the area and the connecting regionsinto a venue emphasizing the Expo theme where “harmony between the sea and land, humankind and nature and the past and present” is achievedthrough the “connection between the sea, coast,and city.”

This principle shall guide the allocation of the exhibition facilities, the design of the Expo DigitalGallery, and the productions and cultural events designed to increase the attractiveness of the Expo site throughout the Expo period and beyond.

C. Development of the ThemeThe purpose of these guidelines is to provide officialParticipants in Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea with a betterknowledge on its theme “The Living Ocean andCoast” and the three sub-themes to be reflected inexhibition plans and designs. It also maps out a routeleading from theme definition to actual concept andcontent development. With this guideline of detailedanalysis of the significance and the theme of the Expo,the participants, involved in the exhibition, conference,and events and performances, will be able to conveyand present the theme and significance of the Expo. The theme and its messages, reflected in every layerof the Expo, will be vividly felt by the participants andvisitors of the Expo. Messages of the theme, welldelivered to visitors will contribute significantly to thesuccessful hosting of the Expo.

1. Overview of the Expo Theme

1.1 Theme ― The Living Ocean and Coast

The Theme of the Expo, "The Living Ocean and Coast:Diversity of Resources and Sustainable Activities" explores the vital connection and interaction betweenearth, the ecosystem, human beings and the ocean.This concept makes room for presentations anddiscussions on a wide range of pressing global issuesunder related themes.

The supporting themes such as "Diversity ofResources" and "Sustainable Development" will beincluded in exhibitions to bolster the Yeosu Expo’soverall concept.

Underlying the Expo’s main concept, “The LivingOcean and Coast,” and lending inspiration to thethemes branching out from it, is "sustainabledevelopment," an idea first introduced in a 1972 report by the Club of Rome entitled The Limits toGrowth. This groundbreaking publication professed

serious concern for the negative effects ofdevelopment on the environment and is still referencedin environmental reports today, including those by theInternational Union for the Conservation of Nature(IUCN), the United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP), and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). It wasalso mentioned at the 2002 World Summit onSustainable Development held in Johannesburg.Clearly achieving sustainable development—a healthybalance between development and the environment—is now an important goal for all countries of the world.

"Diversity of Resources" is another theme that will bepresented throughout the Expo’s exhibitions. The ideaof “diversity” was first introduced during the Conventionon Biological Diversity held in Brazil in 1992. It hasnow become a familiar term to the internationalcommunity.

The 21st century has made pursuing sustainabledevelopment and preservation of biodiversity toppriorities. “The Living Ocean and Coast” can beaccomplished only when we practice the code ofconduct pertaining to “sustainable development anddiversity.” Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea will present thenew paradigm that the co-existence between theecology and humankind will be steered by the oceanand coast.

Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea will mark the 10th anniversaryof the Johannesburg Summit.Additionally, the year 2012 will see the expiration ofthe Kyoto protocol, bringing us to the newfork determining the fate of the earth’s ecology andhuman coexistence. Therefore, the theme of“The Living Ocean and Coast” is regarded as the mostsuitable agenda required by the post-Kyoto regime,and is widely expected to serve as the standardguideline to the international community, so thatnature and humankind, developed and developingcountries, as well as present and future generationsgo hand-in-hand to enjoy sustainable developmentthrough the harmony of development and preservation.



1.2 Sub-themes

The main theme of the International Exhibition YeosuKorea 2012 is “The Living Ocean and Coast.” Themain theme represents efforts to promote the balancebetween development and preservation, coexistencebetween nature and humankind and co-prosperity ofpresent and future generations through the successfulresolution of the challenges facing the ocean andcoasts.

The Exhibition will be held in a symbolic city of Yeosu,where the land meets the ocean. The basic directionfor the presentation is to make the Expo a venue tostrengthen the efforts to solve challenges facing theocean and coasts and to discuss and realize a desirablefuture with creativity, diversity, solidarity andcooperation.

To this end, the main theme has three sub-themes:“Coastal Development and Preservation,” “NewResources Technology,” and “Creative MaritimeActivities.”

1.2.1 Coastal Development and Preservation

Most marine activities take place on the coast, the origin of life and a treasure of the ecosystem. However, without realizing its value, humans have indiscriminately developed the coast over a long period only to find that they have caused severe environmental pollution, resources depletion and natural disasters, which now threaten human survival.

The international community recognized the seriousness of the problems early on, and has beenmaking efforts to resolve them with some success. The sub-theme “Costal Development and Preservation” focuses on raising awareness of howprecious the ocean and coast is to mankind and assessing the outcomes of various efforts to preservethe ocean and coast.The following will be presented under the sub-themeof Coastal Development and Preservation: exemplary

cases of balancing development and preservation incoastal cities; the original ecosystem preserved in thetidal flats and humankind’s arduous efforts to maintainit; technology and equipment used to reduce marinepollution and a variety of technology and knowledgefor safe and clean maritime transportation. This willprovide an opportunity to understand the true valueof the ocean and coast, and to share and develop ourknowledge for sustainable development.

Key message: Sustainable development which reconciles development with preservation

Display classifications- Ecosystems of the ocean and coast- The ocean and natural disasters- Efforts to preserve coastal topography- Eco-friendly coastal development- Efforts to reduce marine pollution- Marine forecast system- Maritime transport, shipbuilding and port technology- Efforts to address sea-level rises

1.2.2 New Resources Technology

Land resources today are rapidly being depleted. In response, countries around the globe have startedto turn to the ocean and coast to develop other resources in its pursuit of seeking new energy resources that can replace land resources.

It is true that the resources in the ocean and coast arenot infinite. However, the sub-theme “New ResourcesTechnology” aims to illustrate desirable ways to develop the ocean and coast for sustainable development of new resources. The sub-theme alsodemonstrates related technology in line with such efforts.

The sub-theme will exhibit technology, which is togenerate new energy, to develop and utilize marinemineral resources, to explore deep sea and to ensuresustainable marine farming and fishing. The exhibitionwill surely arouse expectations and curiosity from the



visitors. Moreover, this section will help renew our perception of the ocean and coast which promises abright future for the next generations.

Key message: Development of innovative technology to help nature and humans coexist

Display classifications- Marine energy technology- Sustainable marine farming and fishing technology- Marine biotechnology- Marine mineral resources utilization and deep sea exploration technology

- Marine ecosystem restoration technology- Marine bio-resources utilization technology- Seawater utilization technology

1.2.3 Creative Maritime Activities

All humans and living creatures on Earth are con-nected with one another via the sea. This implies thatthe sea links them through which humans have developed a certain knowledge and culture. Whilst adjusting to the natural environment, people livingclose to the sea have created unique cultures and activities. Also the interaction between nature and humans has evolved as tangible and intangible assetsin the form of culture, arts and science making eithera direct or indirect impact on “The Living Ocean andCoast,” the theme of the Exposition.

The sub-theme “Creative Maritime Activities” will encompass various aspects of human life such as science, literature, arts, legends and religions, whichare the result of the harmony between people and the ocean. The sub-theme also highlights the achievements by people who have cooperated witheach other through material and cultural exchanges.

The sub-theme will broaden our knowledge about theocean and coast and such familiarity will make us holdnature dearer. In turn, people will be encouraged tobehave in a more desirable and practical way to realizethe idea of “The Living Ocean and Coast.”

Key message: Study on the achievements of the intellectual and spiritual interaction between the sea and humans, among people themselves, and exploration of ways to develop better relationships between the sea and people in thefuture

Display classifications- Stories about the ocean and coast- Artistic activities related to the ocean- Marine recreation and eco-tourism- Traditional coastal cultures- History of ports and human exchanges- Cooperation of humankind through the ocean- Scientific investigation and marine exploration

2. Theme Development Method

The sub-themes are divided into various display classifications in order to present the theme “The Living Ocean and Coast” more clearly concretely.The classifications are devised in order to exhibit visions for and desirable action plans on sustainablemarine activities, thereby contributing to improvingthe quality of life.

Official Participants may refer to the display classifications to plan their exhibitions and reflect the past, present and future implications in their presentations.

For instance,- Past: The history of the utilization of the ocean forexchanges, various changes on the coast, evolution ofmarine culture, etc.- Present: Marine technology, marine industries,oceanic preservation and development, etc.- Future: Eco-friendly coastal development, marinedisaster prevention, new and clean marine energy development, creative marine activities promoting interaction between the sea and humans

3. Guidelines for Theme ContentDevelopment

3.1 Basic Direction of Theme Matrix

For a more accurate analysis of the significance of thetheme, a theme matrix contains an analysis bycontent, time and space. With such a three-dimen-sional analysis, this section sets out the detailedcontents of the exhibition for the theme of the Expo,and the three sub-themes: “Coastal Developmentand Preservation,” “New Resources Technology” and “Creative Maritime Activities.”

The first dimension of “Time” presents four elementseach representing a period of change in the ocean andcoast - the past, the present, the future and a timelessspan when some desirable activities take place.

The second dimension of “Space” contains the threeelements of the coast, the ocean and the world (theglobe).

The third dimension of “Contents” or classificationby sub-theme, includes nine elements such as theeco-systems, environment, industry, food, resources,research/technology, history, culture and futuremarine cities.

The theme points identified in the above dimensionscan be clearly illustrated in matrix charts. Each matrixchart will represent a sub-theme or content ofexhibition (Dimension Z). In each matrix, the horizontalaxis (Dimension X) represents the scope of activityextended from the coast to the whole world, and thevertical axis (Dimension Y) represents the passage oftime from the past to the future and further, andfinally to the timeless. Each intersection of the verticaland horizontal lines makes a theme point, orrepresents a type of activity taking place in a certaincontext of time and space.

The theme matrix will be provided to the Participantsas basic information on the significance of the themeof the Expo; however, the Organizer is well aware ofthe fact that the ocean and coast are open to diverseviewpoints and time-frames. Therefore, the Organizerwill encourage the Participants to develop aninnovative analysis, planning, design and exhibits ascooperative partners for the successful hosting ofExpo 2012 Yeosu Korea.

X1 Coast / Y3 Future Eco-friendly development ofthe coast

Indiscriminate development of the coast causes destruction of the environment of the coast, and istherefore a threat to the ecosystems of the coast andeven the whole ecosystem. Thus, development of thecoast should take place in consideration of the preservation of the coast’s ecosystem. Reckless development of the coast which is only for the convenience of humankind will result in another dire threat to humankind and the globe.(Examples of contents: cases of green development of the coast, marine hotels with self-generators and marine ecological parks)

X1 Coast / Y4 Timeless Span - Preservation of theecosystem and the environment of the coast

A considerable challenge to humankind, regarding the coast, is how to strike a balance between development and preservation. This can be realizedfrom the ceaseless efforts of humankind to restore already destroyed coasts and to pursue developmentin harmony with the coastal environment. It is certainthat people around the world will make interminableefforts to enhance the roles of coasts from mere portsto the cultural infrastructure for leisure, tourism andrecreation.(Examples of contents: the preservation of tidal flats,the preservation of sand dunes and sand traps, prevention of coastal erosion, regulations on reclamation, protection of soft land, the restoration of the coast, and the establishment of a new modelfor coastal development)




X2 Ocean / Y1 Past - Frontier Spirit of theMaritime Era

Humankind’s frontier spirit for the ocean has been a firm foundation for the development of marine industries and human exchanges. Exhibitions on ancestors’ efforts to bring in the maritime era as wellas their maritime transportation and marine industrieswill be arranged in consideration of their hugeinfluence on current marine industries, shipbuildingand sea navigation. (Examples of contents: the history of ocean development in ancient times, maritime industries in ancient times, technologies for shipbuilding and seanavigation in ancient times, and maritime activities in ancient times)

Eco-friendly technologies will be developedto prevent marine pollution and accidents by marineindustries.(Examples of contents: comprehensive managementsystems for maritime transportation, comprehensivemanagement systems for ports and eco-friendly technologies for marine industries)

X2 Ocean / Y4 Timeless Span - The Ecosystem ofthe Ocean and Preservation of the Environment

A clean ocean purifies pollutants. However, marinepollution and environment destruction caused by thedevelopment of marine industries have weakened thecapacity of the ocean to do so, resulting in the destruction of the marine ecosystem and a dire needfor efforts to preserve the ocean. To strike a balancebetween the preservation and development of theocean, clean environment management should be developed with efforts to prevent pollution in theocean and preserve the ecosystem of the ocean. (Examples of contents: the prevention of marine pollution, the preservation of clean marine environment and the restoration of the ocean’secosystem)

X3 World (the globe) / Y1 Past - The Ecosystem ofthe Ocean and Coast

We should develop and preserve the ocean simultaneously. Exhibitions on the formation and evolution of the ocean and coast will enhance visitors’ understanding on such formation and characteristics of the ocean. Such understanding willprovide people around the world with a guideline fordesirable development and preservation of the oceanand coast.(Examples of contents: the creation of the Earth, formation of the ocean and coast, evolution of theocean and coast, and the ecosystem of the ocean and coast)


X3 World (the globe) / Y2 Present - The Oceanand Natural Disasters

Natural disasters, stemming from the ocean, should beconsidered in the development of the ocean and eventhe coast since they exert a massive impact on thecoast as well. Understanding the causes and damagecreated by typhoons and tsunami as well as preventivemeasures thereof will guarantee effective and sustainable methods of development. Also, a marineforecast system will be helpful to prevent and manageocean-related natural disasters.(Examples of contents: forecasting meteorological conditions of the ocean, development of marine forecast models, real-time marine forecast services, typhoons, storm surges, tsunamis, abnormally highsea-levels, sea seiches, etc.)

X4 The World (the globe) / Y3 Future - Measuresfor Marine Environment Changes in the Future

The future marine environment is an important variable to the development of the ocean and coast. It is essential that the global community comes upwith measures to prevent the degradation of the marine environment from hampering the developmentand preservation of the ocean and coast. Transnationalefforts are needed to develop measures against environment changes.(Examples of contents: measures against sea-level risesand temperature changes and for preservation of theecosystem of the ocean)

X3 The World (the globe) / Y4 Timeless Span -Preservation of the Global Environment

The marine environment is a global issue which is notlimited only to the ocean. Abnormal temperatures,caused by global warming, pose a threat not only tothe ecosystem of the globe but also to the global environment, which is the habitat of humankind. Efforts to preserve the global environment should bemade to protect the ecosystem and environment ofthe ocean and coast.(Examples of contents: measures against global

warming, regulations on CO2 emissions, usage ofclean energy, and efforts to preserve the global environment)

Special Regulation No. 1concerning Definition of the Theme of the Exhibition

Article 1. Objective

The purpose of this Special Regulation is to define the theme of the International Exhibition Yeosu Korea 2012

(hereinafter referred to as “the Exhibition”) as set out in Articles 1 and 34 of the General Regulations of the

Exhibition and in accordance with the decisions adopted at the 115th and 118th General Assemblies of the

International Exhibitions Bureau (hereinafter referred to as “the BIE”) on the importance of the theme at

international exhibitions.

Article 2. General Principles

The Organiser of the Exhibition and all Participants must abide by the rules laid out in the General Regulations

and the Special Regulations of the Exhibition, and duly keep to the theme of the Exhibition. The Organiser will

support participants to ensure that their presentations are in line with the Exhibition theme, and will set up the

necessary coordination mechanisms to achieve this aim.

Article 3. Definition of the Theme

The theme of the International Exhibition Yeosu Korea 2012 is “The Living Ocean and Coast: Diversity of

Resources and Sustainable Activities.”

The ocean and the coast are not limited to certain regions, peoples or nations, but form a network connecting

the entire planet and thus being a valuable asset with tremendous resources for humankind as a whole.

Human beings have devised ways to actively develop and utilize nature, particularly the ocean and the coasts,

whilst undergoing industrialization. The world has come to enjoy great benefits as a result of the advancement

of civilization. Yet, at the same time, we are now faced with serious environmental problems due to the degradation

of the marine environment.

The industrial activities carried out by human beings have polluted the ocean and destroyed the marine ecosystem,

causing a decline in fisheries resources. In turn, people around the globe have come to suffer from deteriorating

living conditions and outbreaks of diseases as a result of such sequential contamination.

Global warming caused by human industrial activities is destroying the ocean's mechanism to adjust the climate.

In addition, the fact that the climate adjustment mechanism has been affected means that abnormal global

climate phenomena such as droughts, typhoons, cold waves, melting polar icecaps and rising sea levels can be

seen around the globe.

This transnational issue cannot be addressed only through the efforts of an individual nation but has to be

tackled through the collective efforts of nations and international organisations around the world.




Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea will renew and raise people’s awareness of the importance of the ocean and coasts and

help people worldwide share such awareness by bringing together and highlighting the accumulated knowledge

and technology related to the ocean and coasts. Thus, it will provide mankind with a valuable opportunity to

make great leaps forward in the knowledge and technology which aim to striking a balance between marine

preservation and development.

Article 4. Theme development: sub-themes and interpretation

“The Living Ocean and Coast: Diversity of Resources and Sustainable Activities,” the main theme of Expo

2012 Yeosu Korea, is divided into three sub-themes. Each sub-theme is divided into display classifications that

can heighten people’s understanding of the ocean and coast and present visions for sustainable marine activities

and desirable action plans.

- Coastal Development and Preservation

- New Resources Technology

- Creative Maritime Activities

4.1. Coastal Development and Preservation

The key message of this sub-theme is “Sustainable development which reconciles development with preservation.”

The display classifications are as follows: Formation of coastal cities and frontier spirit for the ocean; Ecosystems

of the ocean and coast; The ocean and natural disasters; Efforts to preserve the Ocean and Coast; Eco-friendly

coastal development; Marine industries in the future; Environment changes in the ocean and responsive measures;

Efforts to preserve the environment of the globe.

Most marine activities take place on the coast, the origin of life and a treasure of the ecosystem. However, with-

out realizing its value, humans have indiscriminately developed the coast over a long period only to find that

they have caused severe environmental pollution, resources depletion and natural disasters, which now threaten

human survival.

The sub-theme “Coastal Development and Preservation” focuses on raising awareness on the importance of

the ocean and coast to mankind and on assessing the outcomes of various efforts to preserve the ocean and

coast.

The following items will be presented under the sub-theme of Coastal Development and Preservation: Exemplary

cases of balancing development and preservation in coastal cities; The original ecosystem preserved in the tidal

flats and mankind’s arduous efforts to maintain it; technology and equipment used to reduce marine pollution

and a variety of technology and knowledge for safe and clean maritime transportation.

This will provide the international community with an opportunity to understand the true value of the ocean

and coast, and to share and develop our knowledge of sustainable development.



4.2. New Resources Technology

The key message of this sub-theme is “Development of innovative technology to help nature and humankind

coexist.” Display classifications are as follows: Marine energy technology; Sustainable aquaculture and fishing

technology; Marine biotechnology; Marine mineral resources utilization and deep sea exploration technology;

Marine ecosystem restoration technology; Marine bio-resources utilization technology; Seawater utilization

technology.

Land resources today are rapidly being depleted. In response, countries around the globe have started to turn

to the ocean and coast to develop other resources in order to find new energy resources that can replace land

resources. It is true that the resources of the ocean and coast are not infinite. However, the sub-theme “New

Resources Technology” aims to illustrate desirable ways to develop the ocean and coast for the sustainable

development of new resources. The sub-theme also demonstrates related technology in line with such efforts.

The sub-theme will exhibit technology, related to the generation of new energy, the development and utilization

of marine mineral resources, deep sea exploration and sustainable aquaculture and fishing. The Exhibition will

undoubtedly arouse the expectations and curiosity of visitors. Moreover, this section will help renew our

perception of the ocean and coast which promises a bright future for future generations.

4.3. Creative Maritime Activities

The key message of this sub-theme is the “Study of the achievements of the intellectual and spiritual interaction

between the sea and human beings, among humans themselves, and the exploration of ways to develop better

relationships between the sea and humankind in the future.” The display classifications are as follows: Stories

about the ocean and coast; Artistic activities related to the ocean; Marine recreation and eco-tourism; Traditional

coastal cultures; History of the relationship between ports and humankind; Cooperation of the humankind

through the ocean; Scientific investigations and marine exploration.

All humans and living creatures on Earth are connected via the sea and humans have therefore developed a

certain knowledge and culture from their link with the sea. While adjusting to the natural environment, people

living close to the sea have created unique cultures and activities. The interaction between nature and humans

has also evolved in the form of tangible and intangible assets in culture, arts and science making either a direct

or indirect impact on “The Living Ocean and Coast,” the theme of the Exhibition.

The sub-theme “Creative Maritime Activities” will encompass various aspects of human life such as science,

literature, arts, legends and religions, which are the result of harmony between people and the ocean.

The sub-theme also highlights the achievements of people who have cooperated with each other through

material and cultural exchanges.

The sub-theme will broaden our knowledge of the ocean and coast. Such familiarity with nature will allow us

to value nature even more. In turn, people will be encouraged to behave in a manner respectful of the idea of

“The Living Ocean and Coast.”

3.9 Marine Cargo Insurance

Marine cargo insurance is classified into two major categories—marine cargo insurance and hull insurance. Marine cargo insurance comprehensively covers damage caused by marine risks such as sinking, stranding, fire and explosion, and damage to cargo transported by sea. The coverage period for this type of insurance is generally one voyage.

However, because transportation of cargo usually starts and ends in land transportation, marine insurance, in many cases, also covers risks related to land transport before and after the marine transportation concerned. For example, the insurance policy will usually stipulate “coverage from the shipping warehouse to the receiving warehouse.”

This chapter provides information on various aspectsof the OCBPA for Official Participants, including theconcept of the OCBPA, eligible participants, the bestpractice case selection process, scope and location ofexhibitions, installation of display facilities, and participation procedures.

1. General Information

1.1 Overview

In October 2008, the Secretary General of the Bureauof International Exhibitions (BIE) proposed the OCBPAto the Organizing Committee of Expo 2012 YeosuKorea as a space where the world's best practices related to oceans and coasts are displayed. The BIE and the Organizing Committee formed an International Selection Committee (ISC) to decide details of the exhibition.

The OCBPA is aimed at sharing future marine technologies and visions, and realizing the theme ofthe Expo, "The Living Ocean and Coast," by featuringexemplary cases of marine development projects. The OCBPA will also contribute greatly to fostering themarine industry and the coming age of the blue economy by introducing cutting-edge technologiesand products that can be benchmarked globally.

The Best Practice Area (BPA) is a new initiative introduced in the Expo tradition. After the UBPA ofExpo 2010 Shanghai, the OCBPA will be the secondcase of BPA, an initiative expected to develop into amajor exhibition formula of the BIE.

The Organizing Committee established the OCBPA Division to handle matters concerning the OCBPA, and a working group comprised of marine experts toidentify best practices in Korea and abroad. The Organizing Committee is making efforts to drawforeign participants through diplomatic channels andexpert networks, and has organized an open international competition on the official Expo 2012Yeosu Korea website to encourage participation in theOCBPA.

1.2 International Selection Committee (ISC)

The ISC is composed of prominent figures from Koreaand abroad, and includes government representativesand international organizations and groups focused onthe ocean and coast. The ISC is independent from theOrganizing Committee and the BIE, making its owndecisions on matters involving the organization of theOCBPA.

1.2.1 Composition

The 17-member ISC is co-chaired by the SecretaryGeneral of the BIE and the Secretary General of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC).The 17 members represent the Organizing Committeeand local and international marine-related organizations such as the Korea Maritime Institute(KMI), the Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute (KORDI), the Green-Growth Ocean Forum(GGOF), the OECD, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the World OceanCouncil (WOC), the Global Environment Fund (GEF),the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA) of the United States, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Global Oceans Conferences (GOC), the Woods Hole OceanographicInstitution (WHOI), the World Ocean Network (WON),and the French Research Institute for Exploitation of

2.1 Survey of Best Practices

A working group comprised of experts in the field ofoceans and coasts determined best practices in threefields: Marine Science and Technology, Marine Industry and Business, and Marine Policy, and presented them to the Organizing Committee. In the Marine Science and Technology field, the working group presented recommendations withoutfurther division of the category. Best practices in thecategory of Marine Industry and Business, however,were divided into the sub-categories of Marine LivingResources, Marine Mineral Resources, Marine EnergyResources, Marine Tourism/Transportation, and Advanced Shipbuilding Technology. Likewise, bestpractices in the category of Marine Policy were dividedinto the sub-categories of Management of the Oceansand Coast, and Marine Education.

Surveys of best practices by the working group andthe Organizing Committee will continue until theFourth ISC Meeting.

2.2 Selection of Candidates

The ISC examined candidates recommended by theworking group and selected participants based on its evaluation standards. The pertinent organizationswere then sent official invitations for participationfrom the Organizing Committee.

2.2.1 Selection Criteria

The ISC took into account, in its screening, the following criteria: whether the case is a world bestpractice; whether the exhibition plan is feasible;whether the exhibit is related to the theme of theExpo; and whether the exhibit will draw a high level of public interest. In the Second ISC Meeting, the decision was made to apply a weight of 30%,25%, 20%, and 25% to each of the four criteria. Thesame criteria were applied in the selection of finalists.

2.3 Application for Participation

The OCBPA participants were divided into recommended and voluntary participants. All participants were required to submit applications.

Best practice candidates were selected by the ISC andsent official invitations of participation from the Organizing Committee. Candidates that accepted the invitation then applied for an exhibition. The ISC selected finalists after reviewing exhibition applications. As for voluntary participation, international organizations, research organizations,corporations and NGOs applied for participation onthe official website of Expo 2012 Yeosu or by e-mailuntil the end of October, 2010.

2.4 Screening of Applications

All documents including completed application formssubmitted by applicants, and data collected and reviewed by the OCBPA Division were examined bythe working group before being presented to the ISC.

The working group reviewed these documents according to selection criteria detailed in 2.2.1.

3.1.2 Exhibition Guidelines

3.1.2.1 Exhibitions Embodying Expo Theme

Exhibitions should be based on familiar issues andpresent scientific principles and concepts in an interactive way. Contents should be smoothly connected to and embody the theme of the Expo,“The Living Ocean and Coast.”Since the OCBPA is located on the second floor of theThematic Pavilion, exhibitions should harmonize and

connect with the pavilion itself, while pursing unique,distinct presentation.

3.1.2.2 Examples of Exhibition Design

Theme: The value of the ocean and visions for the future•Visitors should be able to recognize the values embodied in the 13 ocean and coast best practicesand share visions for the future as world "seatizens."•In Oceanic Observation exhibitions, visitors shouldbe able to recognize the importance of oceanic observations and their achievements to date.•In Maritime Technologies & Industries exhibitions,visitors should be able to better understand the valueof the ocean and related technologies through maritime industries.•In Marine Biodiversity exhibitions, visitors should beable to recognize the importance of marine life research and biodiversity.•In Marine Conservation exhibitions, visitors shouldbe able to ascertain the ways the ocean is pollutedand feel compelled to help protect it.

3.1.2.3 Exhibition Development Guidelines

Employ a logical, storytelling technique for embodyingthe Expo theme.

Avoid the common Pre-Main-Post format in production and try to distinguish each exhibit withunique features and by establishing a distinct atmosphere.Include many experiential programs that offer enjoyment and excitement to visitors. The inclusion ofexecting contents in exhibitions is also encouraged.

Realize a balanced combination of visual images andreal objects, cutting-edge media technology and analog media.

Take an analog approach, rather than a digital approach, and feature life-size models, rare samplesand working models to help visitors easily understandscientific principles.



Avoid monotonous and routine exhibit styles andfocus on education for delivering in-depth, professional information and knowledge.

Employ the process and procedures of scientific communications (interpretations and explanations) toassist the general public in understanding difficult topics.

Seek ways to provide the audience with additional information such as the publication and distribution ofhandbooks and the adoption of QR codes.

Feature seminars or demonstrations by experts to maximize communication effects with the audienceand their ability to connect exhibits with reality.

3.2 Approval of Exhibition Facility Installation Plans

Participants shall draw up a plan for building exhibition facilities and submit it to the OCBPA Division for verification. The Organizing Committeeshall approve the plan after further verification by aprofessional exhibition agency.

3.3 Installation of Exhibits

Participants who wish to display samples manufactured in advance or real objects shall obtainprior approval from the Organizing Committee. Participants are required to register their plan with theOCBPA Division and follow any directives given.

3.4 Completion of Exhibition Installation

When construction is complete, participants are required to submit relevant reports to the OCBPA Division, who will then undertake an examination ofthe facilities. If during the examination problems areuncovered in the facilities, the participants are obligated to take the necessary measures to correctsuch problems until they pass the inspection. A pilotoperation is possible only after this procedure.

3.5 Operation of Exhibition

Participants shall submit proposals or plans for pilotoperation to the OCBPA Division and conduct a testrun in the presence of Division staff. Any problemsfound during the test operation must be remedied bythe participant until one week before the opening ofthe Expo.

1. General Information on Tax Liability of International Participants

1.1 General Principles on Tax Obligations

Participants are required to fulfill their tax-related duties such as business registration and Value-added tax (VAT) filing by themselves on a voluntary basis in principle. However, if participants face difficulties in fulfilling these obligations on their own, they may seek assistance from government-licensed tax professionals. In such cases and upon the request of participants, the Participants Management Center will provide a list of recommended professionals, including CPAs (Certified Public Accountants).

The Participants Management Center of Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea will provide participants with various tax-related support including tax forms and information, and guidance on form completion and filing. The center will also offer consultations on general tax matters and issue tax-related certificates (upon request).

1.3 Tax Liability of Foreign Governments and International Organizations

Foreign governments or international organizations merely displaying goods in their pavilions are exempt from VAT and corporate tax liability, as they are considered liaisons of foreign corporate bodies. However, they must fulfill other tax compliance obligations according to the Korean tax law such as withholding income tax from their employees’ earnings and submitting statements of earnings to the tax authority.

In addition, should participants engage in such commercial activities as operating a restaurant or a shop that sells the local products of their country, they are required to register their business and pay VAT and corporate tax for income earned in the current year, as is the case for foreign corporate bodies.

1.4 Tax Liability for Commercial Activities

Should participants engage in commercial activities on the Expo site such as the sale of goods and the supply of services, they are required to pay direct tax on their income derived from such business activities—either corporate tax or individual income tax (for individuals owning businesses), after voluntarily filing the tax form. In addition, as for trading of goods and services, the participants are liable for payment of transaction tax, VAT.

In addition, in the course of performing business activities at the Expo, should participants hire an employee(s), they should cooperate with the tax authority on tax matters by withholding income tax from their employees’ earnings and submitting statements of earnings to the tax authority. Moreover, business establishments with one or more employees are required to enroll in industrial accident compensation insurance and employment insurance for their employees within 14 days of the employment date. The Korea Workers’ Compensation and Welfare Service is in charge of such matters.

S_0203-��.indd 3 12. 2. 14. �� 2:26



2. Business Registration

2.1. Businesses Requiring Registration

Participants who intend to operate a restaurant or shop during the Expo must register their business with the Korean tax authority and obtain a business registration certificate with a taxpayer identification number.

Even in the case of merely displaying goods and not engaging in business activities, participants are considered to have opened liaison offices, and accordingly should be given a business registration certificate in order to fulfill their tax obligations, purchase goods and obtain VAT refunds.

2.2. Business Registration Procedures

The business registration certificate will be issued within three days after a participant’s submission of the application and required documents to the Civil Service Office of the Yeosu District Tax Office.

In order for foreign governments or foreign business owners to have their business registration certificate issued in a fast and convenient manner, the Participants Management Center will assist with application procedures. Participants are required to bring to the Center a copy of the Commissioner of Section’s passport or the alien registration certificate or passport copy of the individual business owner.

2.3. Required Documents for Business Registration

For private foreign corporate bodies, other than foreign governments or foreign business owners, to have their business registered, the following documents must be submitted to the tax officials of the Participation Management Center.

- Business registration application (available at the

Participation Management Center)- Proof of its registered headquarters- A copy of articles of association- A copy of the Participation Contract (signed by the Commissioner of Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea)- A copy of the passport of a representative of the business

3. Value-added Tax (VAT)

3.1 VAP Filing and Payment

VAT, a type of sales tax, is a transaction or consumption tax levied on the value added in the course of goods or service transactions. However, unprocessed foodstuffs such as agricultural products and other tax-exempted commodities are not subject to VAT.

VAT taxable businesses are required to charge an output VAT amount (10% of supply value) for their goods and services supplied to buyers. After collecting the VAT from buyers, the businesses shall pay the VAT to the district tax office. Under the credit invoice method, the input VAT amount paid at the time of purchase of raw materials to be used for their business (10% of purchasing value) is deductable from the output VAT.

The amount of VAT payable is computed by deducting the input VAT amount from the output VAT amount. If the calculated value is positive (+), the taxpayer shall fill out a VAT return form and pay the tax; if the value is negative (-), the taxpayer shall fill out a VAT refund form and will receive a tax refund for the current year from the tax office.

One taxable period for a VAT return is six months. The first half of a year (from January to June) is considered the first taxable period, and the second half (from July to December) the second taxable period. The deadline for VAT filing and payment is within 25 days after the end of a taxable period; however, for foreign businesses, the deadline is within 50 days.

S_0203-��.indd 4 12. 2. 14. �� 2:26



3.2 Refund Procedures for VAT from Commercial Activities at the Expo

If foreign governments or international organizations are supplied with goods and services required for the production, installation, operation or dismantlement of their exhibitions from Korean local suppliers and if the international participant paid the VAT for those supplies as evidenced in official receipts such as tax invoices or credit card receipts, the VAT amount that was paid, as an input VAT, will be deducted from their output VAT amount.

If a purchase occurred in relation to their business, the input VAT amount is subject to deduction when filing a VAT return. However, the VAT they paid for personal vehicle purchases or business entertainment expenses falls into a non-deductible input tax case although the purchase and activities occurred for business purposes.

If an international participant who has entered into the Participation Contract with the Organizing Committee (signed by the Commissioner of the Exhibition) makes a purchase of goods required for the design and construction of exhibitions or for operating their exhibitions, and if the goods cannot be produced within Korea, they will be exempt from special excise tax. But the special excise tax will not be exempted on other items that are not directly used for the design and construction of exhibition facilities, such as home appliances and luxury furniture. Since the Expo is held for three months from May 12 to August 12, 2012, participants, in principle, are required to file VAT separately by August 20 (for the first taxable period from May 12 to June 30) and by October 1 (for the second taxable period from July 1 to August 12). However, in order to relieve international participants of the burden of filing and paying VAT twice for a period of only 3 months, a more streamlined VAT return and payment procedure will be implemented for international participants. Under this procedure, international participants will be allowed to file and pay VAT only once for the entire period of the Expo, payable by August 20, 2012, with separate VAT returns for the two taxable periods.

In order to receive VAT refunds early, international participants shall apply for refunds for the period from October to December, 2011 by January 25, 2012; for the period from January to March, 2012 by April 25, 2012; for the period from April to June, 2012 by July 25, 2012; and for the period from July to August, 2012 by August 20, 2012. VAT refunds (in cases where the input tax amount is larger than the output tax amount) will be deposited into the business owner’s bank account (as written on the application form) within 30 days after each deadline.

3.3 Required Documents for a VAT Return

The following documents must be submitted at the time of filing a VAT return.

- VAT Return Form, annexes

3.4 Issuing VAT Invoices

International participants are required to issue VAT invoices to buyers as prescribed by the Korean tax law or credit card/cash receipts through the payment system set by the Organizing Committee at the time of supplying goods or services (including food services).

S_0203-��.indd 5 12. 2. 14. �� 2:26



4. Corporate Tax (Corporate Entities)

4.1 Corporate Income Tax Rate

The two-level progressive tax rate applies to the corporate income tax rate as follows:

* The total corporate tax payable by foreign corporate entities is calculated as follows: When applying the corporate tax base, a tax rate is applied to the amount of the tax base multiplied by 3, and then the calculated value is divided by 3 (as stipulated in Section 2, Article 55 of the Corporate Tax Act and in Section 2, Article 39 of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act).

4.2 Corporate Tax Return Guide

In principle, for-profit corporations, international organizations or foreign governments who engage in business activities at the Expo site shall file corporate income tax as prescribed by the Korean tax law within three months from the last date of the month when their business was terminated. However, simplified tax return and payment procedures were arranged for the convenience of participants.

Accordingly, international participants can complete their corporate income tax obligation by filing and paying the tax amount calculated based on the corporate income tax rate by November 10, 2012 (the deadline for removing exhibits and structures from the Expo site).

4.3 Required Documents for a Corporate Tax Return

The documents that should be submitted at the time of filing corporate income tax are as follows.

5. Individual Income Tax (Individual Businesses)

5.1 Individual Income Tax Rate

The Individual income tax rate follows the four-level progressive tax rate system (6% at minimum, up to 35% at maximum)

5.2 Individual Income Tax Payment Guide

International participants who engage in commercial activities such as selling products or providing food services on the Expo site shall file and pay their income tax for the current year’s income.

In principle, all those who engage in business activities during the Expo are required to maintain double-entry books and record all business transactions. However, those of less than a certain size or start-ups are eligible for simplified bookkeeping procedures which allow for easier recording of business transactions.

To complete their tax obligations, individuals among international participants shall first calculate their income tax based on their total income for the Expo period and income tax rate and second, pay the calculated tax by the September 30, 2012 deadline. But in cases where an individual closes his business or leaves Korea before the deadline, they may pay the tax the day before the withdrawal of the business or the departure date.

Under simplified bookkeeping, the taxpayer should record earnings such as sales, expenses such as purchases, and changes in fixed assets in the order that transactions occur. * Required documents and bookkeeping methods can be found on the website of the National Tax Service (www.nts.go.kr: Tax Return/Payment>Global Income Tax>Simplified Bookkeeping).

** An auto form-filling program for tax payment statement is available on the website of the National Tax Service for the convenience of participants. For instructions on how to use this program, please refer to Tax Return/Payment and Tax Return Form Guide from the website of the NTS and print out the tax payment form that is tailored to each business.

6. Earned Income Tax (Withholding Tax)

Earned income tax liability and payment methods for non-residents carrying out work duties on the Expo site depend on whether they work for a pavilion or a business establishment.

6.1 Foreign Government Officials

Foreign government officials carrying out work for a pavilion on the Expo site are not liable for taxation on their earnings on the condition that they are government officials of a participating country or officials of the United Nations or its specialized agencies, unless the corresponding country imposes earned income tax on Korean officials working in that country.

6.2 Employees of Pavilions

Pavilion employees of a participating country with which the Republic of Korea has entered into a tax treaty (Please see Table 1 for a list of the contracting states) are not liable to pay tax if they plan to work for a period or periods aggregating less than 183 days in Korea and submit the Application for Tax-Exemption on a Non-Resident’s Korean Source Income along with certification of residence (please note that certain other standards apply to US citizens).

However, employees of countries which have not entered into a tax treaty with Korea are liable to pay tax on their earnings as prescribed by the Korean tax law regardless of whether they work for a pavilion or business establishment

6.3 Employees of Business Establishments

All employees working for the business establishments of international participants are required to pay income tax on their earnings. The amount of tax to be paid is computed based on the total amount of remuneration, as detailed in the table below.

The tax exemption applies to the employee him or herself; a personal allowance cannot be applied. The tax rate is the same as the global income tax rate.

S_0203-��.indd 8 12. 2. 14. �� 2:26



6.4 Withholding Income Tax from Earnings

In principle, an employer shall withhold income tax from their employees’ earnings every month. In addition, when a business is terminated, the employer shall settle the remuneration; pay the employees’ earned income tax; and submit the employees’ earnings statements by the last date of the following month after the month of termination.

However, for the convenience of international participants, they will be exempt from monthly income tax withholding payments. Instead, they may file and pay the withheld income tax once by November 10, 2012 or before the date of business termination or the departure date in the case where they terminate their business or leave Korea earlier than the deadline.

In such a case, the employees shall submit a Report of Exemption & Deduction from Income to their employer, but are not required to separately file a final tax return.

However, in the case where an employee earned income on which no income tax was withheld, he or she is required to file a final earned income tax return on taxable remuneration received during the Expo to the district tax office before leaving Korea.

6.5 Withholding Income Tax from Daily-hired Workers’ Earnings

Daily-hired workers (defined as workers whose hiring period is shorter than three months; for construction workers, shorter than one year) have no income tax obligation unless their daily wage exceeds KRW 137,000. If their wage is more than KRW 137,000 per day, their employer shall withhold income tax from their earnings and compile and submit quarterly earnings statements by November 10, 2012. But in the case of business termination or if the departure date is earlier than the deadline, the employer shall submit the earnings statements one day ahead of the business termination or departure date.

6.6 Required Documents for a Withholding Tax Return

The following documents must be submitted at the time of filing a withholding tax return.

- Report on Withholding Tax Payment Status, annexes

7.2 License Tax

When international participants intend to provide food services, they are required to obtain a business license signed by the mayor of Yeosu. A license tax will be levied, the cost of which ranges from 10,000 to 30,000 Korean won depending on the size of the business.
