Eunpyeong-gu Holds 'Online Picnic' Visiting Homes Despite COVID-19

Composed as a Program for the Whole Family to Participate

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Eunpyeong-gu (Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) is hosting an 'Online Picnic' using its website to promote a non-face-to-face family play culture during these times when outdoor activities are difficult due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

The 'Picnic (Small Dinner, Happy Family Scenery)' program, which started in 2019, was designed to support residents' 'life with evenings' by providing family-oriented entertainment directly at local community spaces such as neighborhood parks or apartment community areas during the evening hours. However, this year, as part of social distancing measures due to COVID-19, it was held online using Naver Cafe.

Due to the high participation rate and satisfaction of the online picnic, a dedicated 'Online Picnic' website was established, allowing families to conveniently enjoy various activities at home starting from July.

Organized by the Eunpyeong-gu Healthy Family and Multicultural Family Support Center, the 'Online Picnic' in July collaborates with partners such as the Eungam Senior Welfare Center, Eunpyeong Education Welfare Center, Eunpyeong Youth Counseling Welfare Center, and Eungam Daycare as part of the Eungam Welfare Network. The program includes ▲Family D.I.Y. activities (making attachment dolls, masks), ▲Save My Home (housing linkage for single-person households), ▲Precious Eunpyeong Children (MBTI test), and ▲Thanks Challenge, offering activities for the entire family to participate in.

The 'Online Picnic' event runs from July 20 to 23 for pre-registration and receipt of D.I.Y. activity kits, with a review registration on July 29.
