Mayor of Seoul Appeals with “Sashimi Dinner”… “You Can Consume Seafood with Peace of Mind” = South Korea

South Korea's Seoul Mayor Oh Sehun dined at a seafood restaurant with experts and emphasized the safety of marine products.
On the 29th, according to the city of Seoul, Mayor Oh decided to buy seafood from Seoul the day before (28th).
I visited a restaurant and had sashimi for dinner. This is to eliminate the "food anxiety" that has spread due to the release of "radioactively treated water" from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the ocean and to promote the "consumption of marine products."
. The dinner was attended by a five-member delegation, including Park Myung-ha, chairman of the Seoul City Council, and Kang Gun-wook, professor of nuclear medicine at the University of Seoul.
Mayor Oh asked experts for their opinions on public concerns about seafood consumption after treated water discharge.
there was. "It's unfortunate that the vague fear of contaminated water is being politically exploited while the ban on seafood imports from the eight prefectures surrounding Fukushima is still in force," Kang said.
He continued, "The tritium that the public is worried about is all emitted from marine products, and there is no need to worry about it because it is about one-tenth that of vegetables and fruits.
It is better to eat more produce," he added. Mayor Oh said, "Our people are vaguely worried about misinformation about marine products, such as the accumulation of tritium."
I listened to a scientific explanation about the safety of marine products off the coast of Japan. The fishery industry is tough, so it means that you can consume seafood with peace of mind."
