Okpo Land

Okpo Land was an amusement park based in the outskirts of Okpo-dong, South Korea. It opened in 1996^[1] and closed in 1999 allegedly after a series of fatal accidents,^[2] in particular the death of a child who fell from the duck rollercoaster ride.^[3] 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.^[4]
