Korea's nuclear security watchdog have approved
plans to build two nuclear power plants in
the southern port city of Ulsan.
The Shin-Kori... units five and six are expected
to be completed by 2021 and 2022 respectively,...
bringing the number of reactors in Korea to
30.
The project will cost seven-and-a-half billion
U.S. dollars.
The reactors will boost Korea's electricity
supply and benefit regional economic development.
But, there's local opposition due to safety
concerns,... fuelled mostly by the 2011 Fukushima
nuclear disaster in Japan.
