[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Miryang City in Gyeongnam started renovation work on the Miryang Sports Complex from the 26th.

Established in 1997, the Miryang Sports Complex had many inconveniences for citizens due to aging facilities such as the paint condition, restrooms, and parking lot, and was also unsuitable for hosting large-scale sports events.

The city was selected for the public sports facility renovation support project led by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, securing 500 million KRW in national funds and adding 1.1 billion KRW in city funds, improving the stadium facilities with a total project cost of 1.6 billion KRW.

The project is scheduled for completion in December and plans to provide citizens with a pleasant space for recreational sports through a full renovation including repainting the interior and exterior of aging facilities, remodeling restrooms, repaving the circulation road, and improving the landscape of the retaining wall slopes.

Mayor Park Il-ho said, "We will make it a premium sports complex worthy of hosting nationwide events such as citizen sports competitions and training camps, preparing for the post-COVID-19 era."
