Seocho-gu Hosts 2020 Village Community 'Ontact Eoullim Hanmadang' Event

Seocho-gu 20 Village Community Activity Cases Presentation Online Seocho Village Tour from 16 to 20... 'Online Village Gallery' YouTube Release on 19th, 200 Community Activity Works Exhibited Online

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seocho-gu (Mayor Eunhee Cho) will hold the 2020 Seocho-gu Village Community 'Ontact Harmony Festival,' where village residents participate and come together, online from the 16th to the 20th.

The village community is a resident group that discovers and directly solves local issues by themselves. From April to November, the district promoted a total of 37 village community projects in four areas: Our Village Support Project, Neighborhood Revitalization Support Project, Alley Creation Project, and Our Village Space Support Project.

This year's 'Ontact Harmony Festival' breaks away from the traditional face-to-face format due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, creating a communication platform to share the achievements and activity works of resident groups selected for the '2020 Seocho-gu Village Community Contest Project,' allowing anyone to participate anytime and anywhere online.

The 'Online Village Tour,' held over five days starting from the 16th, introduces interviews and project details of 20 actively operating village community groups this year in a webzine format on the 'Village Community Harmony Festival' bulletin board on the Seocho-gu Office website.

On the 19th, the 'Online Village Gallery' will open through the Seocho Village Ecosystem Support Group's YouTube channel.

Despite many difficulties caused by COVID-19 this year, eight village community teams that have persevered in their activities will showcase over 200 works, which can be conveniently viewed online.

Meanwhile, to suggest sustainable directions for village activities in the new normal with with-COVID, various figures active in the village were invited to the 'Ontact Village Talk Show' under the theme 'Connecting Hearts in the Village Non-face-to-face,' which was broadcast live for two hours on the 16th, successfully engaging in two-way communication with viewers.

Seocho-gu Mayor Eunhee Cho said, “It is unfortunate that this year's 'Harmony Festival' is held online due to COVID-19, but I am glad that an event has been prepared to share and communicate the projects carried out by residents selected for the 2020 Seocho-gu Village Community Contest Project. As the saying goes, 'Small things change the world,' each small activity of the village groups forms a large village, and we will actively support next year so that Seocho-gu, where we live, can become a happier community to live in.”
