Abstract

The Busan Port Police Organization conducts guidance and supervision about Registered Security Guard which conducts security screening of the carry-on items of passengers using international passenger ships and cruise ships at the International Passenger Terminal of Busan Port. And the Busan Port Police has been continuously carrying out activities to prevent terrorism in Busan Port by concentrating all its capabilities through preventive policing such as inspection of vulnerable places such as Busan Port North Port, Gamcheon Port, Dadae Port, and New Port, and patrol of Busan Port. In addition, the Busan Port Police has been developing police awards only for advanced external matters, such as conducting active lifesaving on cruise ships targeting Koreans and foreigners, and this has been an opportunity to highlight the roles and activities of the Busan Port Police.
 This study started from the point of view that the Busan Port Police should play an important role in counter-terrorism and that it is necessary to devise continuous countermeasures. In other words, it is necessary to examine the activities of the Busan Port Police to make Busan Port safe from terrorism before the COVID-19 pandemic, and also, the Port Police should play an important role in counter-terrorism after the COVID-19 pandemic.
 To this end, the necessity of an organization to efficiently carry out search tasks at airports and seaports, and to take charge of airport and port security and foreign affairs activities was mentioned. In other words, it is necessary to review ways to establish and operate the ‘International Airport/Port Police Headquarters (tentative name)’, a new police organization for unified and integrated management within the National Police Agency.
