Mayor Heo Seok of Suncheon said, "Since the new city hall construction has involved citizens' participation from the establishment of the basic plan to design competition and design service, I hope that continuous communication will be maintained until the design is finalized so that valuable opinions are not overlooked and are carefully reviewed." He added, "I look forward to the Suncheon City Hall, Suncheon Horizon, Central Park, and courtyards becoming new communication spaces in the old downtown."
