From 10:30 AM on the 5th, a 'Social Distancing' Awareness March... Also Conducting Clean Path Creation by Picking Up Trash

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) is attracting attention by preparing a special campaign.

The district announced that on the 5th at 10:30 a.m., it will hold a social distancing walking campaign with a message to overcome COVID-19 at Bongsudae Park.

This campaign, involving about 50 local residents including Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi of Jungnang-gu, is a continuation of the monthly themed untact walking challenges conducted by the district. It carries various messages to overcome COVID-19, such as practicing social distancing, habitual hand washing, and maintaining personal hygiene rules to protect health in daily life.

In particular, this time the campaign will start at Bongsudae Park and proceed along the popular hiking course of Bonghwasan Mountain, promoting social distancing which can often be neglected during hiking, thereby encouraging voluntary participation from residents.

Moreover, environmental cleanup activities such as garbage collection will be conducted alongside the campaign, making it a twofold opportunity to promote the campaign and create a pleasant environment.

Additionally, strict adherence to quarantine rules such as temperature checks, mask-wearing, refraining from unnecessary conversations, and maintaining distance was ensured so that the campaign could be safely concluded.

For more details about this campaign, please refer to the Jungnang-gu Office website under the district news section or contact the Health Promotion Division of Jungnang-gu Public Health Center.

Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi of Jungnang-gu stated, “I sincerely thank all the residents who are actively participating in social distancing,” and added, “In these times when physical activity may be lacking due to COVID-19, I hope this will be a good opportunity to protect health through walking while practicing distancing in daily life.”

Starting from June, the district has been operating the monthly themed program ‘Walking Jungnang Every Month.’ This November’s theme is ‘Drawing Health (For health, we still walk).’ In September, the program featured the ‘Chuseok Market Street Walk’ during the fruit month, and in October, the ‘Pregnant Women’s Health Walk’ during the sky kite month, with a total of 1,911 participants, receiving enthusiastic responses from residents.
