A fisherman shows off an octopus he caught at the country's northernmost Jeodo fishing grounds, bordering North Korea in the East Sea, on the first day of open fishing on April 6, 2022.
Located just 1 kilometer away from the inter-Korean border, the rich Jeodo fishing grounds open only between April and December under the Navy's strict guard against possible North Korean provocations. (Yonhap)
