[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shim Jeong-woo] On the 20th, Jeonnam Goheung-gun announced that it held a Christmas tree lighting ceremony on the 16th at the Bonggye Rotary Intersection in Goheung-eup.

Hosted by the Goheung-gun Christian Church Association, about 30 people including county officials such as County Governor Gong Young-min, pastors including Kim Yong-hee, president of the Goheung-gun Christian Church Association (senior pastor of Nokdong Jeil Church), and local residents participated in the lighting ceremony.

County Governor Gong Young-min said, "I hope the brightly lit tree today becomes a light of hope that brings great comfort to the weary hearts of our citizens suffering from COVID-19 and the economic recession, like a lamp that illuminates the darkness."

He added, "I hope that warm hearts that care for each other and look after neighbors will fill the entire Goheung area at the end of the year and New Year's, and that all citizens will welcome a hopeful New Year of the Year of the Rabbit."

Meanwhile, Christmas trees have been installed at four locations: Bonggye Rotary Intersection in Goheung-eup, the old county office rotary, the entrance road to Doyang-eup, and the Goheung Comprehensive Cultural Center. They will illuminate the darkness and shine beautiful lights until mid-January next year.
