Busan Gangalli Eobang Festival

Busan Gangalli Eobang Festival

Eobang was the term calling its fishing cooperative in Suyeong area. Eobang, the fishing cooperative taught fishermen new fishing techniques to encourage the fishery. Eobang encouraged singing songs to relieve people from stress of hard work during a group work and to increase efficiency by letting people work with songs telling of fishermen's feelings. Fishing activities of that time were reorganized to "Jwasuyeong Eobang Nori", which has been preserved and passed on until now as the important intangible cultural asset No. 62. Gwangalli Eobang Festival was therefore named after Eobang (漁坊)' in that it is to follow the traditional spirit of the Suyeong region.
