[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwangjin-gu (District Mayor Kim Seon-gap) published a COVID-19 white paper titled "300 Days of Records," documenting the one-year COVID-19 response process from the formation of the Disaster Safety Countermeasures Headquarters at the end of January last year.

The district issued the COVID-19 white paper to factually record the successes and trial-and-error experiences during the past year of COVID-19 response, aiming to use it as a guideline for establishing swift and appropriate quarantine measures in the future.

The newly published white paper, totaling 255 pages, is composed of ▲ Response process and system ▲ Blocking secondary local infection spread through meticulous quarantine activities ▲ Revitalization of the local economy and support for small business owners ▲ Stabilization of vulnerable groups' lives and quarantine support ▲ The power of communication shining in crisis ▲ Gwangjin as seen in the media ▲ Evaluation and reflection, and post-COVID-19.

In particular, the "Evaluation and Reflection, Post-COVID-19" section describes the trial-and-error and difficulties experienced during the COVID-19 response, internal evaluations, and considerations on the challenges to be addressed in the post-COVID-19 era.

Additionally, it includes stories of donations from various sectors, voices of employees who worked fiercely on the front lines, and accounts of residents who endured difficult times together amid an unprecedented crisis.

Kim Seon-gap, Mayor of Gwangjin-gu, said, "The reason for publishing the white paper while COVID-19 is still ongoing is to respond more systematically to the ongoing fight against the virus and to use it as a lesson in case of similar situations." He added, "We will not loosen our vigilance and will do our best to overcome COVID-19, and furthermore, we will actively respond in the post-COVID-19 era based on thorough planning and preparation."

The Gwangjin-gu COVID-19 white paper can be viewed on the Gwangjin-gu Office website under Gwangjin e-book, and it will be shared with related organizations and local governments nationwide that cooperated in the response to share information.
