[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Nowon-gu (District Mayor Oh Seung-rok) attended the opening ceremony of the Nowon Veterans Hall at 3:30 PM on the 19th.

The Veterans Hall, which will serve as a new home for national merit recipients and veterans' families, is located at 75 Suraksan-ro 2-gil (Sanggye 3·4-dong) and has a total floor area of 1,149㎡, with one basement floor and four above-ground floors.

The basement houses a multipurpose auditorium; the first floor includes the management office, offices for the Disabled Veterans Association and the Meritorious Service Association; the second floor contains offices for four veterans organizations including the Liberation Association and small meeting rooms; the third floor has offices for three veterans organizations including the Bereaved Families Association and hobby activity spaces; and the fourth floor is designed as a gymnasium and rest area.

Although Nowon has the largest number of national veterans in Seoul, the offices of veterans organizations were scattered, making communication between groups difficult.

The event was attended by District Mayor Oh Seung-rok, the head of the Northern Veterans Office, heads of veterans organizations, and national merit recipients. The ceremony proceeded with a construction progress report, presentation of appreciation plaques, congratulatory speeches, facility ribbon-cutting, and commemorative photo sessions.

District Mayor Oh Seung-rok expressed his congratulations, saying, “I am very pleased that the long-awaited project for veterans' families has been fulfilled. We will continue to strive to create an environment where those who have devoted themselves to the country are respected and honored.”
