[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-ho] On the morning of the 21st, the entrance of Gunwi County Office was filled with greetings of "Hello" and the bright laughter of employees.

This surprise event was proposed by Deputy County Governor Kim Gi-deok, who felt the necessity of 'Smile Psychological Quarantine' to revitalize the psychologically exhausted and withdrawn public officials due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

On that day, Deputy County Governor Kim Gi-deok and senior officials took the lead, greeting with "I'll say hello first! Hello?" and distributed specially ordered smile cookies, while employees arriving at work responded with bright smiles and greetings.

Deputy County Governor Kim Gi-deok stated, "I believe this campaign will reform the rigid internal culture of public service and act as positive energy for employees psychologically weakened by the prolonged COVID-19 response."

Meanwhile, Gunwi County has been under the acting leadership of Deputy County Governor Kim Gi-deok since County Governor Kim Young-man was sentenced to seven years in prison and detained in court on December 18 last year on charges of bribery.
