Changwon City Cancels Children's Day Event in May... "Please Spend It at Home This Year"
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Sharon] Changwon City in Gyeongnam announced on the 16th that it will cancel the 98th Children's Day commemorative event scheduled to be held on May 5th due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.
Every year on May 5th, unit commemorative events were held throughout the city, but this year, the city decided to do so to prevent infectious diseases and ensure the safety of citizens and children.
The city regrets not being able to hold the Children's Day event, but since it is pursuing certification as a 'Child-Friendly City' in 2021, it plans to hold more diverse children's events in the second half of this year to encourage participation from many citizens.
