In fall, Busan is the 'sea of festival'. We have about 10 festivals this month. And we had about 45 great and small festivals last month. Among them, there was such a great festival as Busan International Fireworks Festival.  And Global Game Exhibition(G-star) is expected to hold soon. There are also a small but characteristic festival like Busan Mackerel Festival and Busan Port Lighting Festival which will be held. Let's figure them out specifically!


Mackerel is popular
-Busan Mackerel Festival

Busan Mackerel Festival was held in Song-Do beach on 28 to 30 of last month. According to the statistics of Domestic Coastal Fishing, the total amount of mackerel caught in Korea is about 17 million tons and about 15 million tons are caught in Busan among them.  The mackerel caught in fall has lots of fat in its stomach so it tastes better compared to other season's it.
In this festival, people can catch mackerel empty-handed and eat cheaply in brazier. People who participate in the festival also can experience auction usually enacted on Busan Cooperative Fish Market and later they can buy mackerel at a very reasonable price.

There were many programs proper for family unit. Many fisherman participated in the competition of catching mackerel in Seogu west breakwater. People can try fusion mackerel dishes like mackerel sandwich and mackerel kebab in the booth. The lecture 'how to cook delicious mackerel' by famous chef received compliment from middle aged woman.  Mackerel Golden Bell and releasing fish to the sea are helpful programs for children.

There are lots of events people can enjoy with no condition. Lee Myung Soo(43, Haeundae-gu) who has participated in the festival with his family said, "All families have incredible time through participating in the diverse programs. But the foods in the booth are so expensive that people can't try it."

Fancy firework dance on the night sky
- Busan International Fireworks Festival

This year, the multi fireworks progressed on the 29th of last month in the rain. Corresponding to the theme 'leap', the firework has expressed the leap of Busan by likening the birds process of growth. The biggest fire bird directed the other fire birds, and the effect was maximized when these birds flew higher and higher. The trade mark of this festival, Niagara Falls fireworks fall under the Gwangan Bridge, and the biggest lotus flower fireworks spread above the Gwangan Bridge. Furthermore, the fireworks of character and the fireworks on the water embroider the night sky. Kim Ma-ya(23), came from Seoul said, "Busan International Fireworks Festival is much better than the fireworks festival in Yeouido. And the rainy weather doesn't matter because this festival was worth it to watch."

Global Game Exhibitions- G-star

G-star, which brought 28 million visitors last year and came out as successful festival, will be held in Bexco on 10 thru 13 of this month. Busan Development Institute ranked G-star in priority for '10 hot seller in 2010 Busan'.

Organizers analyzed about how to have a successful festival on last year. Many of the major international and national game enterprises released new games. In addition, the booths became more diverse. 316 enterprises from 22 countries have participated so that people can experience diverse games. As a result, these kinds of facts made people more satisfied.
So many people are having interests in 2011 G-star in Busan. This year, new games to be released will be as much as last year. Also it seems to have diversity attraction because the new games which are going to be released are not only the online game but also mobile games, arcade, and consoles. G-star also prepared fruitful subordinate events like family camp and game enterprise job fair. To provide more convenience to audience, G-star is adopting a reservation policy this year.

Lighting the nights in Busan
port- Busan Port Lighting Festival

Busan Port Lighting Festival will be held in Song-do, Yeong-do and Jung-gu on 11 to 20 of this month. This year's theme is '2011 lights of one's wish'. The festival becomes due this year so it could be unfamiliar. But people who watched the festival last year responded enthusiastically. The parade in the streets and the light art of multimedia, exhibition of the light art work, and streetscape attracted both the people in and out of Busan. People in Busan could join the festival in their routine days.

It is expected to have various attractions this year as well as last year. In Song-do beach there will be fancy scenes like sand sculptures, compound of lights and sand, and also streetscape and luminous light squares. The core of this festival is a sculpture symbolizing 'the lights of one's wish'. Overall this sculpture is bulb shape, and this would be finished as a art work by combining the citizen's participation lamps and the lights designed. This sculpture would be placed at the surface of the Song-do sea.

Not only for the people from other places but also for the people who live in Busan but don't know about their area have a proper choice to enjoy the festival. So it's good to get interest and join the festival.
