[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The aerospace theme park park golf course, the first of its kind to be established in the Sacheon area of Gyeongnam, will break ground on the 25th.


According to Sacheon City, after completing administrative procedures such as the detailed design service, urban planning facility decision service, and detailed plan approval announcement for the aerospace theme park park golf course, construction will begin on the 25th and is scheduled to be completed by the end of December.


To this end, the budget was secured in the first supplementary budget of this year, and a site briefing session was held last April with the participation of the Sacheon City Sports Council, park golf users, nearby residents, and public officials.


The city plans to create a public park golf course accessible to all citizens within the aerospace theme park (405 Yesu-ri, Jeongdong-myeon), responding to public opinion and the park golf craze among citizens.


By the end of December this year, a total project cost of 150 million KRW will be invested to create a 9-hole public park golf course and resting areas utilizing idle land within the aerospace theme park.


The opening is expected around January next year. However, due to the rapidly increasing popularity among the public and the growing interest in health among the elderly, the opening schedule may be moved up.


Park golf is a communication sport where players freely hit the ball and compete on a small area about 1/50 or 1/100 the size of a regular golf course without burden.


Also, although the rules are similar to regular golf, the gameplay is simple and the required equipment is convenient, making it a sport suitable for the whole family to enjoy.



A city official said, “As we enter an aging society, interest in park golf among the elderly is very high, and in 2023 we will create an environment where all Sacheon citizens can freely enjoy it,” adding, “We will accelerate the construction to ensure the project is completed quickly.”
