[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] The National Fire Safety Public Officials Labor Union (Chairman Hong Suntak) appointed Assemblyman Seol Hoon of the Democratic Party of Korea as an advisor at Assemblyman Seol Hoon's office in the National Assembly Members' Office Building at 4 p.m. on the 11th.

Assemblyman Seol Hoon was first elected as a member of the 15th National Assembly and began his legislative activities. He has served through the 16th, 19th, and 20th sessions and is currently a member of the 21st National Assembly (Bucheon-si Eul, Gyeonggi Province), serving as a member of the Defense Committee.

With this advisory appointment, he will be responsible for legislative consultation related to fire safety.

At the meeting prior to the advisory appointment ceremony, Chairman Hong Suntak said, "There are many parts of the law that need to be amended to improve the working conditions of fire officials. Fire officials working in Bucheon, my electoral district, attended this event today. I hope this advisory appointment will serve as an opportunity to resolve issues such as manpower shortages and the insufficient number of fire stations faced by fire officials in Bucheon. Furthermore, I hope this will become a good precedent in Bucheon that benefits fire officials nationwide."

Assemblyman Seol Hoon said, "I am very honored to be appointed as an advisor to fire officials who protect the lives and safety of the people. Compared to other areas in Gyeonggi Province with similar populations that have two fire stations, Bucheon has only one fire station, and I understand that manpower shortages are severe. Also, I learned through this opportunity that the issue of overtime pay in Gyeonggi Province remains unresolved. Based on what was shared, I will create a venue to discuss the allowances with the Governor of Gyeonggi Province and actively take interest in and support the establishment of the Ojeong Fire Station within Bucheon."
