Our logo consists of a black-tailed gull flying above the green earth. The
oval represents our clean water and tall mountains and symbolizes cooperation
and local development. The three lines in the center of the logo represent the
spirit of the 3.15 Patriotic Deed (patriotic deed on March 15th) and the
citizens' spirit of independence, warm-heartedness, and righteousness. It also
stands for the initial of Masan, the letter M. A black-tailed gull, which has
keen powers of observation and a strong cooperative spirit, hovering above the
earth symbolizes our citizens' progressive and cooperative spirit. The shape
of the logo is dynamic and strong and gives a typical image of Masan Bay and
its citizens, who are future-oriented, full of hope and in tune with both
globalization and localization.
