Gwangju Fire Headquarters Creates Campaign Song to Promote Integrity Organization, Gaining Attention

Firefighters Participate in All Processes from Planning and Songwriting to Singing

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Firefighters in the Gwangju area have attracted attention by holding microphones instead of fire hoses to produce a campaign song promoting a culture of integrity.

The Gwangju Metropolitan Fire Safety Headquarters announced on the 19th that it has distributed the campaign song "Cheongnyeom韓 Sesang," which addresses the eradication of improper solicitations and abusive practices, to the National Fire Agency and fire headquarters in 18 cities and provinces nationwide.

This campaign song is notable for being voluntarily carried out by firefighters throughout the entire process, from planning to writing lyrics and composing music, as well as singing, to promote a culture of integrity.

The lyrics and composition were handled by Fire Officer Choi Won-il of the 119 Rescue Team at the Northern Fire Station, and the singing was performed by Fire Lieutenant Jeong Eun-ju of the Fire Administration Division at the Fire Safety Headquarters. The chorus, expressing a desire for a transparent and fair organizational culture, was sung by a firefighter’s child, accompanied by a melody reminiscent of a children's song.

The produced campaign song has been set as the call connection tone for administrative (internal) phone lines at the city Fire Safety Headquarters, the Fire Academy, and five fire stations, so that awareness of integrity can be raised every time a call is made.

The campaign song and a video interview about the production process can be viewed on the Gwangju Fire YouTube channel "Neighbor Firefighter."

Yang Young-gyu, head of the city Fire Administration Division, said, “Innovative and new integrity policies can become a driving force for promoting an honest organizational culture,” and added, “We will do our best to ensure integrity administration that can be trusted by citizens.”
