[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) held an event on May 21 to celebrate the new beginnings of newlywed couples in honor of 'Couple's Day.'

'Couple's Day' is celebrated annually on May 21, during the month of family, to commemorate the meaning of 'two (2) becoming one (1).' It was established as a legal commemorative day in 2007 to remind people of the importance of marital relationships and to encourage harmonious family life.

As issues such as non-marriage and low birth rates have emerged as significant social problems, the district organized the 'Couple's Day' event to promote the value of family and the spread of a healthy couple culture.

On May 21, the mayor personally delivered a handwritten letter to the newlywed couples who registered their marriage first, and commemorative photos were taken at a photo zone set up in the civil service office on the second floor of the district office. The letter included congratulatory messages on the meaningful day of becoming a couple, expressing hopes that "the path the two walk hand in hand will shine like the dazzling sunshine of May."

The couples who received the letter shared their feelings, saying, "We are happier and more grateful to receive an unexpected congratulation. We will cherish this feeling and live happily in Songpa."

In addition, the district has been receiving positive responses from newlywed couples by discovering various civil administrative services. Along with operating a marriage registration commemorative photo zone and delivering congratulatory cards, the district provides guidance on follow-up procedures after family relationship registration, sends text notifications of registration results, and offers one-stop civil services, providing various administrative conveniences to newlyweds starting their new lives.

Park Seong-su, Mayor of Songpa-gu, said, "We will create a 'livable city, Songpa' with many jobs, a good environment for raising children, and diverse leisure cultures so that many couples starting anew in Songpa can continue to have happy married lives."
