[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yuseonghun) held the opening ceremony of the Geumha Village Community Facility on the 28th.

The opening ceremony was held in a simple manner with only 30 attendees, including Mayor Yuseonghun, members of the National Assembly, city and district council members, and residents who will use the community facility, due to COVID-19.

The "Geumha Village Community Facility" is a four-story building above ground with a total floor area of 288.96㎡, equipped with various facilities for residents' leisure activities and capacity building, such as a "resident learning space," "care space," "urban regeneration field support center," "club rooms," and a "rooftop garden."

The community facility actively operates programs such as the "after-school care class" and "Dream Tree Meal Program" for elementary school students in the village, as well as "physical health and mental health programs" for residents.

In the future, a tool rental center will be operated to support voluntary home repairs for aging houses.

The construction of the Geumha Village Community Facility was promoted as part of the Geumha Village Residential Environment Management Project. The site was purchased in 2017, plans and designs were established in 2018, and the facility was completed in December 2019. After gathering residents' opinions on facility use and conducting interior work, temporary operation began in April 2020.

Yuseonghun, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, said, "Due to COVID-19, we are only now able to fully introduce the facility to residents," and added, "Since it was created with the understanding and support of local residents, I hope it becomes a happy space centered on resident participation and demand."
