The large digital electronic clock installed on the rooftop of the Public Health Center building measures 14 meters in width and 3.2 meters in height, boasting the largest size in Asia, surpassing even South Korea.


It is especially bright and clear under direct sunlight and at night, receives GPS signals from satellites to display accurate time, and experiences almost no malfunctions.


Given the high elderly population in the Cheongsong area, a large digital clock was installed instead of an analog one, and it is expected to greatly improve convenience not only for residents but also for tourists visiting the apple festival venue located by the riverside in front of the Public Health Center.



Governor Yoon Kyung-hee stated, “Until now, the absence of a large clock caused inconvenience for residents and participants of the apple festival. The newly installed large digital electronic clock will become a local landmark and provide a better living environment for the residents.”
