CONFERENCE VENUE
Busan, a bustling city of approximately 3.6 million residents, is located on the southeastern tip of the Korean peninsula. Busan enjoys four distinct seasons and a temperate climate that never gets too hot or too cold. Busan is the second largest city in Korea. Its deep harbor and gentle tides have allowed it to grow into the largest container handling port in the country and the fifth largest in the world. The city's natural endowments and rich history have resulted in Busan's increasing reputation as a world class city of tourism and culture, and it is also becoming renowned as an international convention destination.(http://busancvb.org/english) The conference will be held at the Busan Exhibition & Convention Center(BEXCO). International events such as 2002 FIFA World Cup Final Draw and 2005 APEC summit was held in BEXCO.(http://www.bexco.co.kr/english/main/main.jsp)
