[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Hyun] Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 26th that it has announced the urban regeneration activation plan for 154,000㎡ in the Haenam-eup area and will start the project from next month.

The Haenam-gun urban regeneration activation project is a large-scale general neighborhood-type urban regeneration project targeting Godori area in Haenam-eup, scheduled to be carried out until 2024 with a project cost of 14.2 billion KRW.

Under the vision of “Haenam-eup Old Downtown Regeneration with Beautiful Markets, Streets, and Streams, and a Happy Living Space Nurturing the Future of Children and Community,” the county plans to utilize traditional markets such as the Eup 5-day Market and Daily Market as regional community, startup, and tourism hubs, create specialized streets, and promote commercial district revitalization and residential environment improvement.

To this end, the county plans to build customized local infrastructure, including creating a complex hub for systematic management of the old downtown, and carry out improvements to the residential and alley environments.

This year’s main projects include starting with the maintenance of aging residential areas and promoting the creation of “Safe Gosatgil” for alleyway improvement. Additionally, the “I-rang Sarangbang” will be established as a childcare sharing space and children’s library, the “Haenam Ogeodeun Garden” will be created to improve the environment of the Oil Market, and the “Family Masil Complex Community,” a resident shared space including the Haenam Urban Regeneration Support Center and village caf?, is planned.

For these, a design contest for Safe Gosatgil, resident proposal contests, urban regeneration university, market festivals, and events will also be held.

County Governor Myeong Hyun-gwan said, “The urban regeneration project was a key pledge promised to the residents during the 7th elected term, and it is most important to restore the functions of the old downtown in the deteriorated eup urban area to achieve balanced regional development,” adding, “We will work together with local residents to achieve a distinctive and differentiated urban regeneration unique to Haenam.”
