Elderly residents aged 70 or older who have their resident registration in Nam-myeon, Hwajeong-myeon, or Samsan-myeon can apply for bathing fees at their respective township offices, and retroactive applications are not accepted.
One bathing ticket per month is issued quarterly and can be freely used at all bathhouses within the jurisdiction until December 15. However, residents of Ri areas where public bathhouses are installed, residents of social welfare facilities or long-term care facilities, and those receiving overlapping services are excluded from eligibility.
