The purpose of this study is to approach more analytical facility management strategies for Korea national parks based on visitor awareness. Total number of 214 survey questionnaire of the visitors to a mountain type Deogyu National Park and a coastal type Taean National Park was analyzed employing importance-performance analysis. The result shows that Taean National Park has 4 attributes in 'keep up good work', 3 attributes in 'low priority', and 2 attributes in 'possible overkill'. Deogyu National Park has 3 attributes in 'keep up good work', 4 attributes in 'low priority', and 1 attribute in 'concentrate here'. Satisfaction level of the facility was above average and total satisfaction level of the visit was also higher than 3 points for each park. Deogyu National Park scored higher in both criteria, while Taean National Park was evaluated negative in all detailed items. It may be attributed to a visitor difference between a coastal type national park and a mountain type national park. To increase visitor satisfaction, it is a requirement for facility management to be based on use characteristic of an individual park by the type.

In 2012, the National Park Service conducted an ecological health assessment to efficiently preserve and manage the ecosystem. The need for improving pre-existing management indicators was recognized from the revised Natural Park Act because, while the indicators of the existing evaluation system focused on endangered species, ecosystem disturbance, diversity, water quality (BOD, DO), and habitat fragmentation, they did not reflect the lack of indicators for marine ecological assessment, policy changes, and the time demands. The evaluation results comprised a five-point grading system, which made the analysis of immediate changes, difficult. Therefore, the benthic pollution index (BPI) and habitat restoration indicators were added to improve the evaluation system. The National Park was assessed using 10 classifications, however, only four classifications were evaluated. The ratings were divided into five states, and ten classes were presented as pictograms. The assessment results showed a similar trend as the indicators were improved, increasing from level 3 to level 5. However, the results of the Wolaksan National Park after improvement in the indicators were lower than that before the improvement, whereas, for the Juwangsan National Park, it was higher. This study aims at contributing to the scientific and systematic management of the national park ecosystem by improving the ecological health assessment system.

Although the 'Act on Urban Parks and Green Spaces' was revised in 2016 to provide a legal foundation for national urban parks, there was no further discussion or follow-up research for the implementation of national urban parks. This study investigates Korea's park and green space regulations and national urban park cases from across the world. It aims to analyze worldwide cases and set a course for a viable national urban park system in Korea. The importance and characteristics of national urban parks were evident after reviewing the cases of Japan, Sweden, Finland, and Canada, which have national urban park systems, and the United States and Germany, which aid city parks with national budgets. Each country determined the plans and procedures by assessing the scope of government intervention and the government's role. The importance of communication between the state and municipal governments and private sector participation and governance was recognized. A system was also formed in which local governments actively participate in the nomination, establishment, administration, and management of national urban parks. The results of this study are as follows. First, the concept of equitable national development should be implemented to activate the national urban park system. Second, the national urban park should be a land management tool that may be used to balance development and preservation. Third, a specific method of securing, constructing, administering, and operating national urban parks should be supplemented by the current legislative framework amendment. Furthermore, the establishment of a sustainable research institute is needed to comprehensively analyze parks and green space systems and make appropriate decisions.

Grasping aspects of using our representative soraksan national park and investigating factors affecting visitors＇ decision-making, this study aims to suggest rationally using of the national park and the positive development plan. The question contains those who have visited soraksan national park more than once. This research shows that most of the visitors wish ‘entrance congestion’ to be solved by introducing ‘previous reservation’ system and unpolluted shuttle bus, therefore chances are shown that they could be introduced for settlement of the existing problems.

On 28 April 2008, a male Himalayan Swiftlet (Aerodramus brevirostris) was captured and examined at a night roost of swallows on Hongdo Island, Jeollanam-do, Korea. This is the first record of this species from Korea confirmed by specimen examination. We describe morphological features and some phylogenetic notes of the Himalayan Swiftlet found.
