According to the agreement signed on this day, Gangdong-gu and Goheung-gun will establish an active exchange and cooperation system based on the principles of mutual trust, sincerity, and equality, covering administration, economy, culture, sports, tourism, and the overall local community. They will strive to promote substantial exchanges among local residents and organizations in the private sector and actively share necessary policies and information with each other.

Lee Jeong-hoon, Mayor of Gangdong-gu, said, "I consider the sisterhood agreement with Goheung-gun, where pristine nature and cutting-edge science coexist, to be meaningful. We will build a relationship as partners who can mutually develop through continuous and practical exchanges."

Meanwhile, the Gangdong-gu directly managed store, Urban Agriculture Support Center Singsing Dream (922 Dongnam-ro, Gangdong-gu, Godeok-dong), has been showcasing local specialties from Goheung-gun, such as yuzu and pomegranate, since September.

A district official stated, "We are opening the way for urban-rural coexistence by providing fresh agricultural and marine products to residents and stable sales channels to farmers in Goheung-gun."
