석달간 日항공여객 15% 감소...국제선 전체는 증가
Amid worsening Seoul-Tokyo ties,... the number of Koreans traveling to Japan has fallen over the last three months.
Data by the transport ministry showed on Tuesday that the number of travelers from South Korea to Japan from July to September declined some 15 percent on-year.
That's mainly because of South Koreans boycotting Japanese products to protest against Tokyo's trade restrictions on Seoul.
On the other hand, Korean travelers to other countries,... including Vietnam, the Philippines and Taiwan have increased 13 percent.
The total number of Korean travelers during the third quarter was up over 4 percent to some 31-million.
