[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Hyun] Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 11th that the site of the former post office has been selected for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's 'Urban Regeneration Recognition Project,' and that 6.45 billion KRW will be invested by 2022 to actively promote the creation of a vibrant Okjugol in Jindo-eup.

The county plans to build a pleasant central space by expanding life-experience SOC and create a caring resident community to foster a life-supporting community.

Through this, it is expected to revitalize the cultural, artistic, and tourism industries of the treasured island Jindo-gun by activating the local commercial district, residential areas, and local communities.

In particular, the former Jindo Post Office, which had been neglected for many years causing inconvenience to residents, will be redeveloped to include the Okjugol Harmony Center with one basement floor and three above-ground floors.

Lee Dong-jin, the governor of Jindo-gun, said, "We will do our best to increase foot traffic, improve residential welfare, create jobs, and revitalize the downtown economy of Jindo-eup through the establishment of the Okjugol Harmony Center."

Meanwhile, the Urban Regeneration Recognition Project is a unit project promoted within regions that have established urban regeneration strategic plans under the Special Act on the Promotion and Support of Urban Regeneration, recognized as an urban regeneration project, and thus receives government support such as financial aid and funds.
