Incheon Metropolitan City and Vietnam's Hai Phong are deepening a 30-year friendship rooted in ports and free economic zones to include advanced industries and smart city development. On October 15, Kim Seong-jung, Administrative Vice Mayor of Incheon, met with a delegation led by Do Man Hien, deputy secretary of the Hai Phong Party Committee, to review past achievements and plan for the future. This meeting came just before the 30th anniversary of their sister-city agreement in 1997.

Hai Phong shows interest in Incheon's smart city model and bio industry expertise. The delegation toured significant Incheon infrastructure, including the Cheongna Sky Bridge, recognized as the world's tallest sea bridge observatory, and the Incheon Free Economic Zone promotion center. The delegation examined the city's development plans for Songdo, Yeongjong, and Cheongna districts and heard a briefing on Incheon's smart city strategies.

Incheon currently maintains exchange networks with 39 sister and friendship cities across 18 nations worldwide.
