    There are three aquariums in Seoul. Aqua Planet 63 in Yeouido, COEX Aquarium at Samseong Station, and Lotte World Aquarium at Jamsil Station.
    The 63 Sea World that opened in 1985 renewed in 2016 is Aqua Planet 63. The COEX Aquarium opened in 2000 and the Lotte World Aquarium opened in 2014. All three places are similar, but I chose Lotte World Aquarium. It's the newest facility, and there's a Beluga there.
    The mascot of Lotte World Aquarium is the white dolphin, Beluga. It is popular with visitors for its large size, cute face, and lovely behavior.
    First there were three Belugas here. But one died when he was five and the other when he was twelve. Beluga's life span is 30 to 50 years, so he died when he was too young. No matter how big the aquarium is, it's only a narrow tank for Beluga.
    Now there's only one Beluga left here. When the second Beluga died, the aquarium said it would send the last Beluga back to the sea, but it has not yet been put into action.
    It was nice to see lovely Beluga up close, but on the other hand, I felt sorry for him. I'm sorry to Lotte, but I hope Beluga can go to the wide sea and swim to the fullest and live a healthy life.

    Lotte World Aquarium, Seoul's largest aquarium, opened Thursday, allowing the public to take a close look at some 55,000 marine creatures from 650 species.
    The aquarium, part of the second Lotte World recreation complex in Songpa-gu, southern Seoul, is dubbed an "Underwater Park in the City." The aquarium's 11,240-square-meter venue and combined 5,200-ton capacity water tanks feature creatures from rivers and oceans around the world as far as Antarctica.
    The facility, located on the first and second basement floors of the second Lotte World, has 13 zones that aim to provide "another world that you cannot experience anywhere else." The zones feature different themes including Korean rivers, tropical rivers, the Amazon River, a coral reef garden, sea lions, jellyfish, sardines, an ocean tunnel and polar regions.
    "We arranged the zones in such a way that visitors can meet the various marine creatures. The zones are arranged on the 840-meter route according to the flow of the ecosystem, from the river to the shore to the ocean," a Lotte World official said.
    The course starts from the ecology of rivers and then proceeds to the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and Antarctica. It takes around two hours to complete the course, which includes watching all the marine life and taking part in the educational programs.
    The biggest zone contains the 25-meter-wide main water tank that holds more than 10,000 sea creatures, including 2-meter-long nurse sharks.
    Some other zones contain water tunnels, which are 85 meters long in total. Inside the transparent tunnels, visitors can see beluga whales and other sea creatures swimming above their heads.
    Trout, sea lions, sturgeons and penguins are also must-see creatures.
    Lotte World Aquarium hopes that it can help people learn about marine life and about the importance of protecting sea creatures. "In that sense, providing the most suitable living environment to the creatures is very important," the official said.
    For the beluga whales, for example, the aquarium built a tank that holds 1,224 tons of water, twice the 600-ton standard required by the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria.
    It also installed top-quality life support systems for each tank to prevent disease infection among the different species. Other aquariums in the country have only one system for every tank. Besides the state-of-the-art equipment, veterinarians and fish doctors regularly check the marine creatures' health and living environment.
    The aquarium also plans to jointly conduct studies and hold seminars with Seoul National University's College of Veterinary Medicine and the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute.

    물생활을 하기 전까지 세계 곳곳의 아쿠아리움 투어가 취미였습니다. 대부분의 한국의 대형 아쿠아리움 고질적인 문제 같긴 하지만, 어제 다녀온 롯데월드 아쿠아리움에서의 경험은 유독 충격적이었습니다.
    관람을 하지 않아도 입장할 수 있는 기념품샵에서, 구피를 30미리도 안 되어 보이는 물에 넣어
    밀봉한 봉투를 팔고 있었습니다. 핑퐁 사료와 흡사한 모양의 봉투였습니다. 그 중 베이비 핑퐁의 절반도 안 되는 아주 작은 사이즈의, 사랑해와 같은 멘트가 쓰인 밀봉 봉투에서 구피가 죽어가고 있었습니다.
    올해 말까지 전시라고 들어서
    벨루가가 있는 아쿠아리움은 안 가려고 했지만 한 번 와봤고,
    벨루가 벨라는 생각보다도 더 크고 아름다웠지만 머리에 잔기스같은 상처가 너무 많았습니다.
    벨라가 등장할 때 마다 탱크를 쾅쾅 두드리는 수 많은 아이들과 저지하지 않던 부모들의 뒷 모습이 아직도 마음에 남습니다.
    아무도 사가지 않는 밀봉 봉투 속 죽어가는 구피들과 열악한 환경에서의 스마일 크랩, 거북이, 새우, 그리고 벨라를 보고나니 내내 가슴이 먹먹했습니다. 심지어 기념품샵의 소동물들은 수족관에선 절대 그렇게 판매하지 않을 비싼 가격을 달고, 간혹 사람들의 농락거리로 툭툭 건들여지며 죽어가고 있었어요.
    제 옆 남자 고등학생으로 보이는 한 무리도 이거 안 팔리면 그냥 죽겠다고, 이게 맞냐 그러더군요.
    한사토이의 수생물 외 유니콘, 고릴라 같은 인형들이나 뜬금없는 낮은 품질의 기념품들도 많았고,
    모든 탱크에서 생물 수초는 보지 못한 듯 합니다. 대부분의 탱크에 인공 수초와 실바니안 패밀리를 비롯한 인조 장식이 즐비했습니다.
    오픈한지 얼마 되지 않아 시설은 깨끗하고 수질 관리도 괜찮았습니다. 롯데의 자본력이기에 가능했을 수중 에스컬레이터 등의 시설도 한국에서는 새로웠습니다.
    그러나 돌아오는 길, 많은 생각이 드는 관람이었습니다.
