The naval base business committee was told to have planned an opening ceremony in the completed naval field office on Jan. 31 but to postpone it after the New Year holidays( in lunar calendar, Feb. 2 to 6), which is very much expected to be on Feb. 7. A sea-diving woman who was a relative of a villager who supports naval base was discivered to die in the sea in the morning of Jan. 29 and the navy was told to have considered such bad atmosphere.

A Jeju Domin Ilbo who reported above also said physical conflicts are expected after it if the navy enforces the construction in the coast as the villagers have appealed the lawsuit on the matter of absolute preservation area and the court decision on it has not come out yet.

Monday was quiet as well, with lots of snow and excavation research on cultural properties being posed again.
