Yu Seong-hoon, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, said, “In the untact era, ironically, the digital divide is widening more rapidly. We will strive to create a digitally inclusive society where all members can use digital information and services without exclusion or discrimination.”

For more details, inquiries can be made to the Geumcheon-gu Public Relations Digital Division or the Geumcheon-gu Resident Informatization Education Call Center.
