[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Jun-hee) is carrying out a specialized project to improve the landscape of bridges crossing Dorimcheon Stream, transforming Dorimcheon into a starlit stream befitting the city of Gang Gam-chan.

This project, part of the Dorimcheon specialization initiative under the 7th elected administration's pledges, is being conducted with support of 700 million KRW from the district budget and 950 million KRW from the city budget.

The district plans to carry out bridge repairs for safety, including ▲waterproofing the bridge surface and ▲installing railings for both pedestrian and vehicle paths, as well as create a special space where nature and media art meet through the installation of media glass.

The targeted bridges for this specialization project are Sinlim Bridge and Sinlim 2 Bridge, which play important roles connecting Sinwon-dong and Seowon-dong respectively. These locations have an open sky view from the Dorimcheon riverside park, making them suitable for media glass installation.

The installed media glass will display seasonal content and starlit Dorimcheon image content, and will be used diversely, including broadcasting disaster alerts in emergencies and transmitting texts submitted in advance by residents upon application.

The district plans to complete the project by December this year, turning Sinlim Bridge and Sinlim 2 Bridge into beautiful bridges sparkling with lights. Through the media glass, artistic and three-dimensional videos will be broadcast, creating a special space where residents can heal in harmony with nature.

Through this project, the district expects Dorimcheon to evolve into a starlit stream where nature and art coexist, becoming a representative attraction of Gwanak-gu, which will also help revitalize the surrounding local economy.

The district is making various efforts to strengthen Dorimcheon’s competitiveness by creating various tangible and intangible values, including developing the ‘Dorimcheon Brand Naming BI’ to differentiate from other districts, the ‘Dorimcheon Restoration Project’ to turn unrecovered sections into ecological streams, and the ‘Cultural Platform Creation’ on Gwancheon-ro.

Mayor Park Jun-hee said, “We will carry out the Dorimcheon specialization project without delay to present a transformed Dorimcheon embracing beautiful nature and brilliant culture to our residents,” and added, “We will do our best to make Dorimcheon a representative attraction not only of Gwanak-gu but also of Seoul.”
