[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) held the ‘28th Yangcheon Residents' Day’ commemorative ceremony on the afternoon of the 13th at the newly established ‘Yangcheon Digital Media Center’ on the 3rd floor of the district office.


Every year, the district has held the Residents' Day commemorative ceremony with about 1,000 residents at the Yangcheon Culture Hall Grand Theater, but this year, utilizing the ‘Yangcheon Digital Media Center,’ the event was conducted online in a non-face-to-face manner while practicing social distancing in daily life.


The ceremony also included awards for eight recipients of the Yangcheon Resident Award, who have been exemplary residents through their exceptional passion and efforts: ▲ Regional Development - Kim Byung-bu ▲ Community Harmony - Lee Young-ho ▲ Volunteer Service - Jang Myung-ja ▲ Environmental Protection - Lee In-sook ▲ Filial Piety and Good Deeds - Choi Jung-ah ▲ Culture and Arts - Lee Bong-joo ▲ Sports - Hong Jin-pyo ▲ Education - Yang Yeon-su.


The district connected 18 neighborhoods online and live-streamed the event through YouTube ‘Yangcheon TV,’ engaging many residents through various methods. The recorded video will also be separately posted on the Yangcheon-gu blog.


In his commemorative speech, Mayor Kim Soo-young stated that in preparing for the post-COVID era, he will pursue projects for Yangcheon’s bright future with sincerity and passion, including ▲ health policies combining health, healing, and welfare ▲ digital inclusion policies centered on ‘people’ and ‘coexistence’ ▲ urban parks embracing forests and nature for residents ▲ eco-friendly policies for sustainable development ▲ and a cultural renaissance blending residents’ daily lives and culture.



Mayor Kim said, “Although we considered whether to hold the ceremony, we wanted to create a place to share hope together, so we prepared it in a slightly different way. I express my gratitude and respect to all residents who are turning the ‘time of hardship’ into a ‘history of hope’ through patience and sharing despite the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.”
