Okpo Land

Okpo Land (옥포랜드) was an amusement park based in the outskirts of Okpo-dong, South Korea. While not much is known about the park's history, it opened in 1996 (stated by some sources to have been in May 1997) and closed in 1999 allegedly after a series of fatal accidents, in particular the death of a child who fell from the duck rollercoaster ride. The legitimacy of these claims have been put in dispute for several years, with the rumors believed to be originating from a derailed cart from the rollercoaster ride. A more likely reasoning behind the closure of the park is said to have been due to financial issues deriving from an economic crisis that affected South Korea from 1997 through 1998.

In November 2000, the park was sold off to someone referred to as "Mr. Park", and although there were two seizures and a provisional registration of a claim for transfer of ownership, they were cancelled. The nearby Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., Ltd. also purchased the property in November 2006 for 5 billion won.

In 2011, a fire broke out amongst the arcade area which was believed by locals to have been done by arsonists. By the same year, the remnants of Okpo Land were demolished so that a hotel can be constructed on its former location. Although, nothing further has come forward.
