[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jeong Hyeong-seok] Mokpo City announced on the 13th that Mayor Kim Jong-sik participated in the ‘Doctor Helicopter Sound is Life (Sosaeng)’ relay campaign upon recommendation from Kim Jae-jeom, Head of Mokpo Office of Education, on the 10th.

The ‘Doctor Helicopter Sosaeng Campaign’ is a campaign conducted to improve citizens' awareness due to difficulties in operating the doctor helicopter for emergency patient rescue caused by noise complaints. The campaign is based on the fact that the takeoff and landing sound of the doctor helicopter (115db) is similar to the sound of a balloon popping, and supports the operation of the doctor helicopter by holding an event where balloons are popped.

Mayor Kim said, “The doctor helicopter is a flying emergency room that protects the golden time of emergency patients with professional medical staff and saves lives. Please support the sound of life so that the doctor helicopter can be the wings that protect precious lives.”

Mayor Kim Jong-sik recommended Mokpo City Council Chairman Kim Hyu-hwan and Mokpo Chamber of Commerce Chairman Lee Han-cheol as the next participants in the campaign relay.
