[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Kim Byung-won, a preliminary candidate for the Democratic Party of Korea in Naju·Hwasun, Jeonnam, stated on the 10th that in order for Hwasun to grow into a self-sufficient city with a population of 100,000, a bio-medical hub (advanced medical complex) combining Hwasun's abundant bio and medical resources must be established.


Preliminary candidate Kim Byung-won said, "For Hwasun County to grow into a life sciences hub in the southwestern region of the country with a population of 100,000 by 2030, economic and ecological co-growth must be achieved," and promised, "I will take the lead in establishing a sustainable bio hub through the construction of an advanced medical cluster."


The bio-medical hub will be developed as an advanced research and development cluster integrating medical and recreational resources with the Fourth Industrial Revolution, investing 1.1636 trillion won over 2 million square meters across Jeonnam Province, including Hwasun County's vaccine industry special zone.



He emphasized, "This site will house next-generation vaccine therapies, smart medical devices, the National Anti-Aging Center, cancer-specialized hospitals, and an environment for training specialized personnel," adding, "If domestic and international capital and excellent human resources are attracted through this, it will establish itself as a central city in the Gwangju Metropolitan Economic Zone."
