COVID-19 이후의 해양관광 활성화에 따른 과잉관광의 대응책에 관한 연구

A Study on Countermeasures against Overtourism following the Revitalization of Marine Tourism after COVID-19

The word ‘overturism’, which refers to various side effects caused by the influx of tourists beyond the limit that a tour area can accommodate, has recently been attracting keen attention in the tourism sector. Even without citing anti-tourism protests by residents in world-famous tourist cities such as Venice, Italy and Barcelona, Spain, some regions in Korea, such as Jeju Udo, are also raising their voices against overtourism. After the COVID-19 pandemic, the world's perception of tourism seems to be changing significantly. The popularization of overseas tourism before COVID-19 brought a wider range of knowledge and experience to mankind, but in other respects, it produced many side effects such as overtourism and carbon generation due to excessive marine tourism. As such overtourism came to a complete halt after COVID-19, the sense of loss caused by the absence of tourism was at first significant, but on the other hand, positive effects such as environmental cleanup and reduced destruction of local culture followed. In this study, the concept and major industries of marine tourism, which are expected to increase in demand and interest in the COVID-19 era, are analyzed, and sustainable tourism as a countermeasure against overtourism due to tourism revitalization after COVID-19.
