South Korean signs are visible everywhere such as on the city's traffic boards and officials' business cards.

Zhang said Yantai will focus on building the city into the best investment destination for South Korean enterprises and the largest distribution base for South Korean products.

Since Thursday, photographers and journalists from 12 South Korean media organizations were on a group tour of Yantai, which wrapped up today.

The visit, sponsored by China Daily, the publicity department of Yantai municipal party committee and the commerce bureau of Yantai government, seeks to enhance Yantai's popularity in ROK by presenting the city's technological, cultural, tourism and environmental development.
