[Wando＝Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyungpil] On the 15th, Wando-eup, Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that the ‘Euratchacha! Wando-eup’ band, which was established on July 14 last year to serve as a community hub for Wando-eup residents, has celebrated its first anniversary.

Since then, the ‘Euratchacha! Wando-eup’ band has been actively operated with the purpose of delivering news about county and eup administration, updates on the COVID-19 situation, and various projects and information that benefit residents in the most prompt and accurate way, especially in the ongoing non-face-to-face era due to COVID-19.

Currently, with 1,216 members registered in the band, Euratchacha! has established itself as the representative band of Wando-eup by running various programs that residents can participate in, such as relay campaigns, good donation movements, and a patriotic Taegeukgi flag-raising photo contest.

Moreover, residents propose various opinions through the band, and Wando-eup quickly takes action on them, solidifying its position as the official representative band of Wando-eup.

In particular, recently, the band has been used as a communication space that resolves residents’ concerns by frequently posting updates on COVID-19 confirmed cases and progress, listening to requests such as the installation of a clock tower in Gayong-ri Children’s Park, and installing a large clock tower with county support to address residents’ difficulties.

Kim Heesoo, mayor of Wando-eup, said, “I deeply thank the residents of Wando-eup and Wando-eup natives from all over for their great interest and support despite the difficult COVID-19 situation,” adding, “We will continue to develop this band as a community hub for everyone who loves Wando-eup” on the occasion of the band’s first anniversary.

Wando-eup residents celebrated the band’s first anniversary with messages of support and encouragement, saying, “It was good to receive accurate information and news rather than hearsay,” and “Please look back to see if there was any shortcoming in the path we have walked and continue to be the torchbearer for the county residents.”
