Jeju Island, South Korea’s popular tourist destination, may soon charge an entrance fee along with various other tourism fees, according to proposed legislation that is under consideration by the country’s National Assembly. These fees may include 1,500 won per night for tourists, 5,000 won per day for car rentals, and 10,000 won per day for minivans. Additionally, 5% of the rental fee may be charged for renting a bus. The Jeju Special Self-Governing Province estimates that visitors will be charged an average of 8,170 won per day. If implemented, the fees could generate a total of 167 billion won by the third year. The proposed measures are aimed at controlling the side effects of tourism, such as garbage and sewage exceeding the island’s official capacity. The entry fee was initially introduced in 2012 but faced criticism and was withdrawn. The island government has requested a study on the feasibility of the entrance fees, and the bill will be proposed to the National Assembly in 2023. The Jeju Governor has said that the measure is “being very carefully planned” and is “by no means easy” since they have to gather nationwide support before it is passed.
