The Korea Air Show took place between 4 and 9 November and attracted 183 exhibitors from 20 countries, up from the numbers at the 2001 show. But trade visitor attendance was down from 30,000 in 2001 to an estimated 20,000 in 2003, with only 1,000 attending the opening day. Organisers blamed the low turn-out on the show's move from Seoul to Busan, the lack of a static display and the loss of air force sponsorship.
