[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seodaemun-gu (Mayor Lee Seongheon) recently completed the formation of the ‘Seodaemun Happiness 100% Promotion Team’ to successfully advance the key core projects of the 8th term of the elected administration.

The promotion team is a public-private cooperation task force (TF) launched with Mayor Lee Seongheon’s strong determination to ‘make residents’ happiness 100%.’

Specifically, it consists of four TFs: ▲Organization Restructuring and Personnel TF ▲Transportation Innovation and Military Base Relocation TF ▲Life Care TF ▲New Tong Development TF.

The ‘Organization Restructuring and Personnel TF’ collects opinions from experts in related fields to systematically reorganize the entire district organization and further considers introducing efficient work systems from private companies.

The ‘Transportation Innovation and Military Base Relocation TF’ reviews concrete implementation methods for the district’s urgent issues such as the ‘early commencement of the Western Light Rail Transit and Gangbuk Transversal Line’ and the ‘undergrounding of the Gyeongui Line.’ It also explores relocating military bases within the area and attracting semiconductor research complexes and convention facilities on the vacated sites.

The ‘Life Care TF’ establishes a welfare system that cares for residents’ entire lives across all age groups, including supporting the second chapter of life for middle-aged and older adults. As part of this effort, it also considers designating low-rise residential areas within the district as welfare special zones in cooperation with Seoul City.

The ‘New Tong Development TF’ supports the rapid and transparent promotion of redevelopment and reconstruction projects linked to New Tong Development and Moa Housing, key pledges of Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon. In particular, it plans to create a landmark in the northwest area of Seoul in the Hongje-dong district, where development has been delayed for a long time.

The Seodaemun Happiness 100% Promotion Team, abbreviated as ‘Seobaekdan,’ includes external experts in relevant fields and district officials working together. They will collaborate to produce results.

Mayor Lee Seongheon is known to have put special effort into forming the ‘Seodaemun Happiness 100% Promotion Team,’ personally requesting participation from experts across various sectors.

The promotion team’s inauguration ceremony was held on the afternoon of the 22nd of this month in the Seodaemun-gu Office’s main conference room, attended by about 40 people including external experts and officials.

At the event, Mayor Lee presented the blueprint for the 8th term administration according to the goals of the four TFs and asked external experts to continuously cooperate for the development of Seodaemun-gu.

Seodaemun-gu plans to devote all efforts to ensure that the key core projects of the 8th term administration achieve results through the operation of the ‘Seodaemun Happiness 100% Promotion Team’ TF.
