During last month’s typhoon, a large amount of trash that was pushed onto the east coast was left behind for more than a month, spoiling the aesthetics.

The local government has come up with a tough excuse that it couldn’t be cleaned up due to a lack of budget, but criticism of procrastination is mounting.

The vast beaches are littered with piles of rubbish piled up like little hills on the sandy beach.

It has not been cleaned for over a month due to trash that was carried away during the typhoon last month.

Wood waste is the most common and various household wastes such as plastic bottles and vinyl are also mixed in.

Yangyang Naksan Beach is 1.8 km long. There are approximately 100 piles of garbage collected along the beach.

Tourists frown as they avoid the heinous piles of garbage.

Merchants who are struggling with Corona 19 only sigh that there will be fewer customers as garbage is left for a long time.

Nearby beaches are also lined with garbage piles that block the sea.

About 5,000 tons of garbage from the typhoon was left on the beach,

Yangyang-gun explained that, in the meantime, he could not entrust it to a waste disposal company due to insufficient budget.

Yangyang County recently decided to clean up the garbage within this month, securing 1.15 billion won in national spending, but criticism of procrastination seems difficult to avoid.
