He then visited the ‘Youngjae Regional Child Center’ and ‘Borin Housing Branch 2’ to check on their operational status.

In the afternoon, he toured various sites including the planned site for the ‘Saegil Science Museum,’ ‘Bethel Care Counseling Center,’ ‘Nanum Store,’ ‘Hanuri Daycare Center,’ vulnerable areas for rainy season preparedness, outdoor heat shelters, and homes of neighbors in need, inspecting livelihood issues.

‘Dong(e) Beonjeok Alley Mayor’ will be flexibly operated in 10 neighborhoods from Siheung 3-dong until mid-November. The district plans to carefully review resident proposals and suggestions received during the schedule and reflect them in district administration.

Mayor Yuseonghun said, “I will focus on communication with residents, which could be neglected during the COVID-19 situation, and carry out the alley mayor schedule. I will do my best to listen to residents’ voices and bring the administration closer to a happy city, Geumcheon, where residents can empathize.”
