Gwangjin-gu Opens Senior Centers and More to Vaccinated Individuals

Starting June 7, Senior Centers Open for Residents Who Received 1st and 2nd Vaccinations... Recruitment for Vaccinated Participants in Programs at Each Neighborhood Community Center and Gwangjin Cultural Center

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gwangjin-gu (District Mayor Kim Seon-gap) will reopen public facilities such as senior centers for residents who have received the COVID-19 vaccination.

The district will sequentially open public facilities centered on vaccinated individuals in line with the government's announcement of incentives for COVID-19 vaccine recipients and will support the recovery of daily life.

The eligible users are residents who are 14 days past their first or second vaccination dose. Senior centers, veterans' halls, and each neighborhood community center, which had been closed, will resume operations, and face-to-face programs will be expanded at the Gwangjin Cultural Center and social welfare centers.

First, senior centers began operations on June 7.

The operating hours are from 1 PM to 5 PM. While usage time and capacity restrictions will be eased, a quarantine manager responsibility system will be implemented, and efforts will be made to manage quarantine through regular disinfection by professional companies.

Additionally, each neighborhood community center plans to operate programs and accept applications for vaccinated instructors and students, and the Gwangjin Cultural Center will conduct additional recruitment beyond capacity for summer semester courses currently in operation, limited to vaccinated individuals.

The veterans' hall senior center and auditorium, which had been completely closed, will also begin operations in June, and the Gwangjin Senior Welfare Center along with Junggok, Gwangjang, and Jayang social welfare centers plan to expand face-to-face programs starting in July.

District Mayor Kim Seon-gap said, “We plan to support more activities through the opening of public facilities for residents who have been vaccinated. We will do our best to help residents recover their daily lives as soon as possible.”
