Kang Ki-sung, who operates an Ediya Coffee outlet at Busan’s North Port Waterfront Park, donated 1 million won ($700) to Dong-gu as a hometown love donation after a shark’s unexpected appearance brought a surge of visitors. Bukangi, a 3.5-meter-long nurse shark, was first spotted in the park’s artificial waterway on September 18 and is believed to have entered while chasing prey before becoming unable to leave. Busan Facilities Corporation counted 616,800 visitors from September 19 to 28, compared with about 2,000 on an average holiday. The donation date is given as the 1st in the latest account, while the existing record listed October 2. Rescue efforts are continuing after a five-hour attempt on September 29 failed to move the shark; a second operation began on the 2nd using a large net to guide it toward the open sea.
