[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] From the 20th to the 30th, Dobong-gu (Mayor Lee Dong-jin) will hold the ‘3rd Jigu Miso Festival’ online.


The ‘Jigu Miso Festival (a precious choice to protect, save, and smile)’ began with the ‘Dobong-gu Ecological Symbol (Flagship Species) Proclamation Ceremony’ in September 2018. It has gained great response from residents through diverse and enjoyable experiences and attractions that raise understanding and interest in various environmental issues, establishing itself as a representative comprehensive environmental festival in the northeastern region.


This year’s event will be held online in a non-face-to-face format due to social distancing measures caused by COVID-19.


Participants can join the festival via the Jigu Miso online festival webpage QR code or URL, and video content can be viewed even after the event period on the YouTube channel ‘DobongbongTV.’


The 3rd Jigu Miso Festival is prepared as a resident participation reporting program under the slogan ‘Jigu Miso is ON again this year,’ where various environmental stories from around Dobong-gu can be experienced through vivid videos.


The festival programs include ▲Exploration of endangered species in Jungnangcheon Stream ▲Practical lectures using eco-friendly effective microorganisms (EM) ▲Hidden workers protecting the local ecological environment ▲Stories of energy farmers nurturing sunlight ▲Resident community activities toward energy self-reliant villages. Resident reporters explore local landmarks and activities, communicating with local residents to add useful information and fun.


It is also expected to be an opportunity to deepen interest and affection for one’s hometown.


Additionally, resident participation events such as quiz events related to festival videos and Jigu Miso practice pledge certification shots have been prepared. Among participants, 500 people will be selected by computer drawing and given mobile gifticons to boost participation enthusiasm.



Lee Dong-jin, Mayor of Dobong-gu, stated, “The fundamental strength to overcome the global environmental crisis comes from the continuous efforts of residents centered on villages and communities,” and added, “We will actively promote sustainable environmental policies to increase residents’ participation opportunities and to transition to an ecological city demanded by the times.”
