[Gurye=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yuk Miseok] Jeollanam-do Gurye-gun (Governor Kim Sun-ho) announced on the 12th that it held a final report meeting for the discovery of 10 core strategic projects that can be promoted in the mid-term by 2025 at the county office situation room the day before and took time to listen to the opinions of department heads.

Gurye-gun diagnosed in March that the most urgent common problem faced by county-level local governments is the risk of regional extinction due to population decline and aging, and promoted the discovery of 10 core strategic projects to present the mid- to long-term development direction of Gurye-gun in line with the Korean New Deal, a government priority policy.

At this final report meeting, under the vision of “Gurye, a city of healing and rest with nature,” three major promotion strategies were established: ‘Industries where everyone prospers,’ ‘Happy citizens,’ and ‘Spaces rich in the future,’ and 10 core strategic projects were presented accordingly.

The 10 core projects presented this time were selected based on whether they are tasks that can be continuously promoted by 2025, focusing on the core directions of the Korean New Deal: industry, people, and space.

Specifically, under the strategy of ‘Industries where everyone prospers,’ the projects proposed were ▲ fostering Gurye-type healing-specialized industry G-Therapy, ▲ fostering a future agricultural city that attracts youth, and ▲ fostering Gurye local wheat regional industry.

Under the ‘Happy citizens’ strategy, the projects included ▲ creating a sustainable green safety city, ▲ establishing Gurye cultural city as the center of Namdo culture, and ▲ building the Gurye Dream (GD) lifelong education welfare system for citizens’ happiness rights.

Under the ‘Spaces rich in the future’ strategy, the core strategic projects proposed were ▲ establishing Gurye as Korea’s No. 1 healing tourism destination, ▲ Hwaeom District Renaissance, ▲ building the Seomjingang Tourism Cluster Smart Wellness hub, and ▲ establishing an urban space recreation strategy plan for Gurye-eup and Masan-myeon spatial environment.

Additionally, the attendees of the report meeting intensively reviewed and discussed the appropriateness of task selection and additional or supplementary matters regarding detailed projects.

The county plans to finalize the ‘10 Core Strategic Projects with Achievement Goals for 2025’ by reflecting the supplementary matters discussed at the report meeting.

Governor Kim Sun-ho emphasized, “It is very important to realize the actual development of the county by designing the county’s development direction in line with the Korean New Deal 2.0 government policy, which is promoted under the goal of Korea, a country creating the future,” and expressed his determination, saying, “All public officials will concentrate all their capabilities to successfully promote the core projects and realize the vision of Gurye, a city of life where nature breathes.”
