SEOGWIPO, Dec. 27 (Korea Bizwire) — The 20th International Seogwipo Winter Sea Penguin Swimming Festival will be held on January 1 at Jeju’s Jungmun Saekdal Beach.
The event invites participants to challenge the winter sea as a gesture to throw away the worries of the previous year into the ocean, and make a new year’s resolution.
Participants can dive into the ocean after they receive a check-up at a medical support booth set up at the beach.
All participants will receive a medal in celebration of the festival’s 20th anniversary, while 20 participants turning 20 will be offered gifts on a first-come first-served basis.
