From May 20 to June 5, Submit Your Entries for Jungnang Happiness Bulletin Board Slogan Contest on Jungnang-gu Office Website
...Original Summer-Themed Phrases Within 30 Characters

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] What if the phrase I wrote was displayed on the exterior wall of the Jungnang-gu Office building?

Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) announced that it will hold a contest for the phrase of the ‘Jungnang Happiness Billboard’ to deliver warm messages of comfort and hope to residents for the upcoming summer.

The ‘Jungnang Happiness Billboard’ is a large billboard on the outer wall of the Jungnang-gu Office, installed along with the creation of a green plaza from the ground parking lot of the district office building, which was opened to residents at the end of April.

Currently, the billboard displays the phrase “If you call a name, it becomes a neighbor; if you do it together, it becomes a friend (by Lee Young-sun),” expressing the idea of residents coming together as intended by the plaza’s creation.

The district plans to select phrases through quarterly public contests to further strengthen communication with residents.

The contest period is from the 20th to June 5th, and anyone living or working in Jungnang-gu can participate. Participants should submit original creative phrases of up to 30 characters suitable for summer that provide comfort and inspiration to residents and resonate across generations, via the Jungnang-gu Office website.

Submissions can also be made in person or by mail to the Administrative Support Division of Jungnang-gu Office.

After review by a phrase selection committee composed of internal and external members, six works will be selected. The winning entry (1 work) will receive 500,000 KRW, and five runners-up will each receive 100,000 KRW, totaling approximately 1,000,000 KRW in Jungnang Love Gift Certificates.

The winning phrase will be designed and displayed starting July 1st.

For more information, visit the Jungnang-gu Office website or contact the Administrative Support Division at Jungnang-gu Office (☎2094-0322).

The open plaza features a 945㎡ lawn and walking paths, as well as a 303㎡ deck installed in the idle space above the underground parking entrance, making it enjoyable for family outings and cultural events alike.

The district plans to expand the open plaza as a space for communication between the district and residents, and among residents themselves.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, said, “With the opening of the open plaza and the installation of the Jungnang Happiness Billboard, the Jungnang-gu Office has been reborn as a space for residents,” adding, “I hope Jungnang residents will showcase their wonderful writing skills so that the spirit of summer can be fully felt.”
