[Imsil=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk Province, is expected to gain momentum in promoting various pending projects by securing 2 billion KRW from the Jeollabuk-do Special Adjustment Grant in the first half of this year.

According to the county on the 27th, the total amount of the special adjustment grant secured in the first half of this year is 2 billion KRW for 16 projects.

In February, the county secured 900 million KRW for two projects, including 700 million KRW for the Imsil-gun Park Golf Course Construction Project, and in June, it secured 700 million KRW for the (Old) Unam Bridge Landscape Lighting Installation Project and 100 million KRW for the Imsil Bangsuri Jangjemurim Supplementary Project.

An additional 300 million KRW budget was also secured for resident-requested pending projects aimed at improving agricultural activities, such as the maintenance of aging irrigation and drainage channels and agricultural road paving.

The Imsil-gun Park Golf Course Construction Project is a project to build a 27-hole park golf course in Osu-myeon, which is expected to greatly contribute to local residents' leisure activities and health promotion upon completion.

The (Old) Unam Bridge Landscape Lighting Installation Project is being promoted by the county, which is developing tourist attractions around Okjeongho Lake, including the installation of a suspension bridge and zipline, to provide visitors to Okjeongho with a spectacular night view.

Additionally, the Imsil Bangsuri Jangjemurim Supplementary Project involves tree maintenance and the creation of walking paths at Jangjemurim along the Owoncheon Stream in Gwanchon-myeon, which was designated as a National Forest Cultural Asset last year.

Upon completion of this project, the county is expected to achieve both enhancing the value of forest resources and creating a resident-friendly space.

The county plans to further accelerate improvements in agricultural productivity and residents' living conditions through continuous maintenance of small-scale agricultural infrastructure such as aging agricultural roads and drainage channels.

A county official stated, “Securing the special adjustment grant has provided the momentum to rapidly advance the county's pending projects. We will continue to work closely with Jeonbuk Province to ensure smooth progress of regional pending projects.”
