[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Mokpo City Council member Kim Hoon (Yonghae, Yeonsan, Wonsan-dong) carried out disinfection activities on the 7th to prevent the spread of COVID-19 local infections in the area.

Council member Kim Hoon has been conducting disinfection for 3 hours a day from the 2nd to the 6th targeting multi-use facilities in the district.

In particular, on the 6th, despite the biting wind and temperatures dropping to minus 4 degrees Celsius in the afternoon, he disinfected the area around Shin Jungang Market, which attracts many people, as well as the restrooms, drawing attention from local residents.

Kim Mo (51), a resident of Yeonsan-dong, said, “I thought it would just be a show and they would stop after a few hours, but seeing the sincere effort of disinfecting every day for a week without missing a single day made me feel their sincerity,” and added, “I hope they continue to serve the community steadily in the future.”

Council member Kim Hoon said, “Due to COVID-19, merchants have lost their smiles and live forgetting faces behind masks. I hope the day will come soon when they can take off their masks and smile brightly.”

He then pledged, “No matter how much I do, it is never enough, but I will always strive to fill that insufficiency.”
