Years of efforts have paid off.
One of the largest events in the world will be held in Korea's Yeosu in 2012.
The World Expo venue decision was made in Paris by members of the Bureau of International Expositions.
Arirang's special correspondent Kim Kiho covers the story from Paris.
''Yeosu!''
The moment Korea has been waiting for.
As soon as the name was called‚ Korean delegates and hundreds of supporters in Paris went wild.
The announcement touched off a grand celebration.
People were singing and dancing sharing the joy they've been dreaming of for the past 500 days five years if you count the days since the city lost to Shanghai in its first bid for the world expo in 2002.
As expected the vote by the Bureau of International Expositions on Monday went into a second round.
None of the three candidate cities namely Korea's Yeosu‚ Morocco's Tangier and Poland's Wroclaw gained two-thirds of the votes cast by the 140 member states.
Had they done that‚ it could have decided the winner immediately.
Yeosu and Morocco went into a runoff and it was Yeosu that succeeded in soaking up the ballots that initially went to the Polish city in the first round.
Yeosu's final presentation before the vote meanwhile featured the importance of sustainable marine development and environment and how the city plans to turn the expo into an opportunity to learn about and exchange ideas on the issues of climate change.
''It's time to pop the champagne. The Korean delegation and supporters will depart for Seoul Tuesday afternoon for more celebrations back home.
