KOREA Tourism Organization (KTO) has sought to reassure travellers that the entire country remains stable and all tourism facilities are operating as normal in the face of escalating tensions with North Korea.
In a press release issued yesterday, KTO stressed that the South Korean government was “taking all appropriate measures to resolve the situation peacefully”.
The NTO also pointed out that no travel advisories had been issued against South Korea so far.
According to official statistics, inbound arrivals increased almost 12 per cent to an all time high of one million visitors in March. Visitor arrivals from China and Singapore grew by 56 per cent and almost 29 per cent respectively.
