[Reporter] Haeundae Beach in Busan was packed with vacationers. With a heatwave sweeping across Busan and Gyeongnam today (the 11th), including 36.8 degrees in Yangsan, hundreds of thousands of vacationers flocked to the coast to escape the heat and enjoy the sea. What stands out is the sharp increase in foreign tourists, who are changing the scenery of the beaches. {Alina Shin Seong-il / American Tourist / "This area is perfect for families to play in. You can relax here."} Forgetting the heat, they fully enjoy Busan's summer while playing beach volleyball under the scorching sun. {Sammy Yu / American Tourist / "Busan is special to me. I studied in Japan, and there wasn't a single place to play volleyball there. It's so nice to see so many people come and play together."} The increasing number of attractions around the sandy beaches is also cited as a change in Busan's seaside. Swimming pools located near the beach have seen a surge in visitors, with foreign tourists accounting for about half of the crowds. They are expanding the range of attractions by serving as water parks targeting families during the day and transforming into venues for lively dance parties in the evening. {Susie George Greg Oscar / French Tourist / "There are so many things for families to do. There are water parks and saunas, so it's great for having fun."} Starting today (the 11th), a heat wave advisory has been issued for the entire Busan and Gyeongnam region. Although it seemed like the rainy season was starting late, there are growing concerns that we might end up with a dry summer without any rain at all. This is Ha Young-kwang from KNN.
