History
Busan Aquarium is a joint project between Living and Leisure Australia (LLA) and local government. This is the first major tourism undertaking with a local government under the Private Investment Promotion of Infrastructure Law. Living and Leisure Australia has since been acquired by Merlin Entertainments, the worlds second largest attraction operator.
The LLA Group has extensive experience in aquarium operations and also owns four other aquariums in other parts of the world. They are UnderWater World, Queensland, Melbourne Aquarium, Siam Ocean World, and Chang Feng Ocean World, Shanghai. It also manages the Dubai Aquarium and Under Water Zoo under a management contract from the United Arab Emirates.
