[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Ju Cheol-in] The Culture and Environment Committee of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Council announced on the 4th that it visited Gumi Citizens' Stadium on the 1st to inspect the preparation status for the 102nd National Sports Festival.

On that day, the Culture and Environment Committee members, who listened to the report on the preparation status of the National Sports Festival and visited the main stadium site, urged thorough compliance with the quarantine management manual and full preparation to prevent safety accidents, as the event is being held under the severe circumstances of COVID-19.

They also requested the successful operation of spectator-free games and non-face-to-face online broadcasting to hold a symbolic event that marks the beginning of a new 100 years of sports in the post-COVID era.

Hwang Byeong-jik, Chairman of the Culture and Environment Committee, asked, “Since this National Sports Festival, opening on the 8th, will be held without spectators under difficult conditions, please make every effort to finalize preparations such as stadium facilities, traffic measures, and torch relay during the remaining period.”

Meanwhile, prior to the on-site inspection of the National Sports Festival preparations, the Culture and Environment Committee held its 1st meeting to deliberate and approve ordinances and consent proposals related to its jurisdictional departments.
