The East Sea surrounded by Korea, Japan and Russia is one of the most vulnerable places to tsunami attacks in the world. A number of tsunamis have been occurred during last decades in the region. In special, the middle areas of the eastern coast of the Korean Peninsula have been damaged due to the Central East Sea Tsunami occurred in 1983. Thus, tsunami hazard mitigation becomes an important issue at those coastal communities. The countermeasures against unexpected tsunami attacks are not sufficient because the government policy of Korea generally focused on not preventing but recovering. In this study, a hazard map based on the field survey and tsunami evacuation plan is developed to mitigate tsunami damage at Imwon port, which was severely damaged during the 1983 Central East Sea Tsunami.
