Opening of Songpa Seokchon Lake 'Radio with Cherry Blossom View'

Lively Online Cherry Blossom Viewing, 'Cherry Blossom Radio' Opens... Live Broadcast on YouTube 'SongpaTV' from 2 to 11, 2-5 PM

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) will open the 2021 online spring flower festival under the theme of "Songpa's Online Cherry Blossom Walk," starting with the first broadcast of "Radio with a View of Cherry Blossoms" at 2 p.m. on the 2nd.

The district will fully restrict access to Seokchon Lake during the cherry blossom blooming period and hold the festival online instead, while preparing small-scale on- and offline programs to enjoy cherry blossoms along the Songpa Dullegil trail.

In particular, "Radio with a View of Cherry Blossoms," held at the Seokchon Lake "Cultural Space Lake," is planned as an interactive program where Songpa residents directly participate and create the content.

It will be broadcast live on Songpa TV's YouTube channel from 2 to 5 p.m. daily from the 2nd to the 11th.

The opening ceremony of this festival, the first broadcast, will begin at 2 p.m. on the 2nd. Specially, Songpa Mayor Park Seong-su will appear to introduce residents' stories and prepare a time to ask and answer questions about Songpa-gu through comments.

Also, the segment "Spring Delivered from Seokchon Lake Instead" will be a time for residents to participate directly, share stories, and engage in various conversations. The "Meet at 3 o'clock Cherry Blossom Concert" will feature live performances by various artists active in Songpa-gu.

Additionally, the "Cherry Blossom Restaurant" segment will conduct a "mukbang" where participants taste and express the flavors of local restaurants affected by COVID-19. The "Songpa Ssem" corner will introduce the Songpa-gu education support platform "Songpa SSEM" education programs and invite notable figures from the "Person Library" to share life wisdom, providing a meaningful time.

Notably, this event utilizes the broadcasting equipment of the Songpa Ssem Future Education Center, with staff directly producing and broadcasting the program.

Furthermore, an event is prepared where viewers participating in comments during the live broadcast on YouTube Songpa TV will be entered into a real-time drawing to receive gifticons (chicken and coffee coupons).

Songpa Mayor Park Seong-su said, "This year's cherry blossom festival is significant because residents directly participate and create the event together. Although COVID-19 has increased physical distance between us, I hope 'Radio with a View of Cherry Blossoms' will be an opportunity to bring our hearts closer through neighbors' stories."
