The minister previously responded to a merchant's complaint that ``even if we say, ``Seafood products are safe, people don't believe us.'' Continuing, ``Contaminated water (radioactively treated water from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant) will be treated scientifically.
"This is safe treated water," he said, stressing that "'waste' is a completely incorrect word." Prime Minister Han's site visit on that day was attended by the chairman of the Korean Fisheries Industry Federation and the Korean Coastal Fisheries Association.
Accompanied by the chairman of the Korean Federation of Fisheries Industry Associations and the chairman of the Korean Fisheries Federation, they visited stores in Garak Market and inspected consumption trends of seafood. He also held the hands of the merchants and encouraged them by saying, "Please do your best."
They also picked up domestically produced white-breasted sea cucumbers and purchased seasonal seafood such as blue crabs. We also ate abalone and flounder at a restaurant in Garak Market.
While showing data on treated water discharge provided by the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) and TEPCO, Prime Minister Han said, ``If we do not comply with standard values, we will be subject to maritime law trials.''
"We will immediately file a lawsuit against the government," he said, adding, "Currently, everything (standard values) is being complied with and the entire international community is watching, so there is no need to file a lawsuit."
He continued, ``We must transparently disclose information so that the public can feel safe, and continue to communicate regarding the safety of seafood.''
I'll go,'' he promised.
