The Little Mermaid Statue is a gift from Copenhagen based on the 2014 Agreement for Friendly Exchanges and Cooperation between the Seoul Metropolitan Government and Copenhagen Municipality. This is the first time ever the statue is ecxhanged between two cities. The Little Mermaid Statue was made by Edvard Eriksen, founder and owner of the original statue in Copenhagen[1]. In return, Seoul sent a sculpture with its theme on Gwanghwamun, symbolizing the city as a token of its gratitude. Our sincere appreciation is expressed to everyone involved in this this project. Hopefully the friendship between Korea and Denmark will become stronger through this exchange.

인어공주 동상은 코펜하겐시와 서울시가 2014년에 체결한 우호도시 협약으로 세워졌습니다. 도시 간 우호 차원에서 인어공주 동상이 교류된 것은 최초의 일이라고 합니다. 동상은 코펜하겐시의 인어공주 동상 원본을 만든 에릭센 집안에서 제작 되었으며, 서울시는 광화문을 소재로 한 조각작품을 코펜하겐에 보낸 바 있습니다. 이 같은 교류로 한국과 덴마크 사이의 우정이 다져질 것을 기대하며 동상 제작과 설치에 도움을 주신 많은 분들께 감사드립니다.
