Mayor Lee Jung-hoon of Gangdong-gu attended the opening ceremony of the Gangdong-gu Haegong Senior Welfare Center on the 1st.


Mayor Lee toured various facilities including the 'Baekse Garden' designed with cognitive health in mind, the 'Sunshine Small Library' where one can enjoy reading with a good view, the 'District Dream Love Daycare Center' to meet local care facility demand, and community spaces for gatherings, encouraging the efforts of on-site staff.


Since its opening in 2011, the Haegong Senior Welfare Center has played a pivotal role in senior welfare in the area, but due to increased membership and aging facilities causing inconvenience, the district invested about 5.6 billion KRW to expand and remodel the center to a basement one floor and four floors above ground.


Mayor Lee said, "The newly opened Haegong Senior Welfare Center is expected to serve as a central space that accommodates all age groups and improves the quality of life for local residents. We will continue to promote the expansion of living SOC projects to provide high-quality welfare services."
