You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.236.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 06:21, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[Image:ROK Coast Guard vessel 3006.jpg|thumb|right|upright|KCG vessel No. 3006 sailing alongside [[United States Coast Guard|U.S. Coast Guard]] cutter ((USCGC|Boutwell|WHEC-719)) in August 2007]]

The '''Korea Coast Guard''' ('''KCG'''; ((lang-ko|해양경찰청)); [[Hanja]]: <span lang="KO">海洋警察廳</span>, [[Revised Romanization of Korean|Revised Romanization]]: Haeyang-gyeongchal-cheong, literally ''Maritime Police Agency'') is a South Korean law enforcement sub-agency responsible for maritime safety and control off the coast. The KCG is an independent and external branch of [[Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries|Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries]].

The KCG has its headquarters in [[Sejong City|Incheon]], has hundreds of smaller operating stations along the coastline of the Korean Peninsula. It operates 4 classes of heavy vessels (over 1,000 tons), 3 classes of medium vessels (over 250 tons), and 3 classes of light vessels (speedboats over 30 tons). The KCG also uses several types of 'special purpose watercraft', such as firefighting vessels, barges, high-speed scout boats, light patrols, and amphibious [[air-cushioned landing craft|hovercraft]]. The KCG aviation unit fields 6 [[fixed-wing aircraft]] and 16 [[rotary-wing aircraft]]. The Coast Guard also had its own [[asymmetric warfare]] unit named the 'Korean Coast Guard Special Operation Unit'.

==History==
[[Image:Two Kamov Ka-32.JPEG|right|thumb|300px|A [[Kamov Ka-32]] of the Korea Coast Guard]]
[[Image:Yeosu Coast Guard2.JPG|thumb|250px|ROK Coast Guard, 122 Rescue Unit, Yeosu]]
The Coast Guard Authority was formed on 23 December 1953 in [[Busan|Pusan]], at the same time a Maritime Police Unit was also established as part of the [[National Police Agency (South Korea)|National Police Agency]]. In October 1962, new bases were established in [[Incheon|Inchon]], [[Yeosu]], [[Pohang|Po-Hang]], and [[Gunsan|Kunsan]]. In February 1963, the aviation unit of the KCG closed, though it reopened in the 1980s. 

From 1980 onwards, the KCG greatly expanded its fleet, and in August 1991, the Police Unit was renamed the Korea National Maritime Police Agency. In 2007 the Korea National Maritime Police Agency was integrated into the Coast Guard. In the early 21st century, the fleet expanded to include various vessels of over 3,000 tons, and as of January 2002, the 'Korean Coast Guard Special Operation Unit' was officially formed. In the May 2008, the "Search & Rescue Maintenance Unit" was newly constructed, and as of late 2008, various sub-agencies changed infrastructural composition. 

Before its temporary disestablishment in 2014 the Korea Coast Guard had planned to field more vessels over 5000 tons by 2015, and to significantly expand its asymmetric warfare force through encouraging participation from other police branches.

===Disestablishment===

On May 18, 2014, President [[Park Geun-hye]] announced South Korea's "plans to break up its coastguard" after failing to respond well during the [[Sinking of the MV Sewol|MV ''Sewol'' ferry disaster]].<ref>((cite web|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-27465378#TWEET1132272 |title=BBC News&nbsp;— South Korea to break up coastguard after ferry disaster |publisher=BBC |date=1970-01-01 |access-date=2014-05-21))</ref> According to Park, "investigation and information roles would be transferred to the South Korea National Police while the rescue and salvage operation and ocean security roles would be transferred to the Department for National Safety, not to be confused with the Korean [[Ministry of Security and Public Administration]], which will be newly established".<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.cnn.com/2014/05/18/world/asia/south-korea-coast-guard/|title=South Korean president dismantles coast guard after ferry disaster |author1= K.J. Kwon |author2=Paula Hancocks |author3=Jethro Mullen|date=19 May 2014 |publisher=CNN))</ref>

On November 7, 2014, the [[National Assembly]] declared that the South Korean coast guard be disbanded as a result of South Korean lawmakers voting 146 to 71 in favor of transferring the Coast Guard's investigative responsibilities to the South Korea National Police Agency and establishing a broader safety agency.<ref name="Associated Press AP"/><ref>((cite web|title=South Korea disbands coast guard in wake of April's ferry disaster|url=http://globalnews.ca/news/1658895/south-korea-disbands-coast-guard-in-wake-of-aprils-ferry-disaster/|website=Global News|publisher=Associated Press (AP)))</ref><ref>((cite news|title=South Korea approves plans to disband coast guard in wake of ferry disaster|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/south-korea-approves-plans-to-disband-coast-guard-in-wake-of-ferry-disaster/article21492627/|website=The Globe and Mail|agency=Associated Press))</ref><ref>((cite web|title=South Korea Parliament Approves Plans To Disband Coast Guard After Ferry Disaster|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/11/07/south-korea-coast-guard-disbanded_n_6119196.html|website=Huffington Post))</ref> As a result, the South Korean Coast Guard is again under the [[Ministry of Public Safety and Security (South Korea)|Ministry of Public Safety and Security]].

===Reestablishment===

Newly elected President [[Moon Jae-in]] announced his plan to re-organise the ministries and government agencies. Following the approval of the [[National Assembly (South Korea)|National Assembly]], the South Korean coast guard was revived on July 26, 2017 as an independent, external agency under the [[Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries]].
