A total of 1,076 trees of seven species, including Cheongdanpung (Korean maple), were planted in the created Seoul Challenge Forest.

At the plaque ceremony held on the morning of the 28th, the achievements of the Tree Love Challenge project were introduced, commemorative tree planting was conducted, and photos were taken to celebrate the completion of the Seoul Challenge Forest.

About 20 officials from five organizations, including Seoul City, KB Kookmin Card, Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation, Tree Planet, and Mapo-gu, attended the event.
