Of the 611 indoor swimming pools, most swimming pools are located in Gyeonggi province with 27.7% (n=169). Seoul and Gyeonggi-do have the highest proportion of swimming pools in Korea. Second, in types of swimming pools, 47.6%(n=291) was children’s swimming pool which is the highest proportion in the nation. Children’s swimming pools are also mostly located in Seoul and Gyeonggi province with 57%. Third, of 372 profit swimming pools, children’s pools show the highest number with 78%(n=291). Conclusions: Children’s swimming pools are picking up faster than the other types of swimming pool. Yet, safety-related studies are still lack.
