The Mascot

Ulsan has a city mascot. His name as you can see from the picture is Haeuri. Im not sure if he is a dolphin or porpoise but he is really cute. Haeuri is plastered all over the city. His face appears on every light pole and on the side of several buildings. There is even a statue of him infront of city hall which I rode by today. Ulsan's moto is "Ulsan for You!" The city has declared that they will become the first Eco-polis in the world but how they will achieve that I have no clue. The city is full of cars and trash just like most big cities. One interesting thing to note is that they are serious about recycling. They take every sort of food waste, paper, plastic, glass and metal seperately from trash. Its also really conveinent because you just set whatever is to be recycled outside your door and they come pick it up.
