Geumcheon-gu Newsletter 'Geumcheon Hyanggi' Appoints Guest Honorary Reporter

Seven New Members in Their 20s and 30s Appointed to Reflect Perspectives of Various Generations

Delivering Lively and Diverse Local News Tailored to Residents' Viewpoints

Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yu Seong-hoon) held a guest honorary reporter appointment ceremony and meeting at 2:30 PM on the 8th in the small conference room of Geumcheon-gu Office.

Geumcheon-gu operates a team of guest honorary reporters to include lively and diverse local news in its newsletter, "Geumcheon Hyanggi." This year, a total of 12 reporters will be active, including seven newly appointed members to reflect perspectives from various generations.

The term for guest honorary reporters is one year, but renewal is possible depending on their activity. Going forward, they will cover various fields such as culture, festivals, and policies by directly experiencing and reporting on-site throughout Geumcheon, creating “on-site experiential” articles tailored to residents' viewpoints.

To enhance the professionalism of the articles, Geumcheon-gu plans to provide capacity-building training for guest honorary reporters, including manuscript writing and interview techniques. Additionally, to strengthen communication that has been lacking due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, regular meetings will be held.

The Geumcheon-gu newsletter "Geumcheon Hyanggi" publishes 60,000 copies monthly, distributing them to households as well as public facilities such as libraries and senior centers.

Mayor Yu Seong-hoon of Geumcheon-gu stated, “Since you are directly participating in producing ‘Geumcheon Hyanggi,’ the representative promotional publication of Geumcheon-gu, I hope you take pride in your activities,” and added, “I ask for your active engagement in listening to residents’ life stories and communicating together in the future.”
