Over 30,000 Visitors Attend Fireworks Show
The autumn night sky of the Masan Gagopa Chrysanthemum Festival, renowned as a nationwide festival, drew exclamations from citizens and tourists with its fireworks show.
Changwon City, Gyeongnam Province, announced that the 24th Masan Gagopa Chrysanthemum Festival’s ‘Multimedia Fireworks Show’ was held around the 3·15 Marine Nuri Park.
Starting at 7 p.m. on the 30th, the pre-show performances such as Bubble Magic Show and Vista set the stage, followed by the main fireworks event that illuminated the October night sky of Masan Bay filled with the scent of chrysanthemums. Not only the adults watching the performance but also the children who came along were fully immersed in the bubble performances and magic shows set against the backdrop of the night sea.
The performance by the group Vista on the main stage at 3·15 Marine Nuri Park greatly elevated the atmosphere of the fireworks show. At the height of the exciting melodies and rising mood, large fireworks were set off to celebrate and wish for the success of the Chrysanthemum Festival. The large fireworks, perfectly harmonized with the music, decorated the front sea of Masan Bay, and the lingering reflections on the water amazed the audience. This fireworks display, set against Masan Bay and chrysanthemums, offered unforgettable memories to those who visited the site with its splendid fireworks.
Changwon City deployed a total of 300 personnel, including public officials, police, and firefighters, to prevent congestion and ensure safety, anticipating a large crowd that day. From the start of the event until attendees returned home after its conclusion, passageways were secured and thorough safety measures were implemented to prevent bottlenecks, ensuring citizens could move safely. These efforts were made to ensure the event proceeded smoothly without any safety incidents.
