On this day, Mayor Choi said, "It has already been one year since the 8th term of the local government, which started vigorously with the vision of a happy Sunchang for all residents. The past year was a time to lay the foundation for achieving the five major administrative goals of 'citizen harmony, revitalization of the local economy, profitable agriculture, warm welfare, and increase in resident population' based on communication and harmony with the residents. Now, I will focus all my capabilities on preparing solidly to establish a new century plan for Sunchang, using that foundation as a blueprint."

He continued by highlighting the major achievements during the first year of the 8th term: "Securing 16.8 billion KRW in the Local Extinction Response Fund, distributing 1.4 billion KRW in compensation for small business losses, being selected as an excellent local government in the Korea Sports Industry Awards, providing 1.3 billion KRW in agricultural product production incentives, rapid restoration of facilities damaged by heavy snowfall at the end of the year, and distributing 800 million KRW in living support funds for university students, among other meaningful accomplishments."

Additionally, he emphasized, "To realize a small but strong Sunchang, we plan to accelerate the implementation of three key projects: creating premium streams at Gyeongcheon and Yangjicheon, establishing 500 rural homes for a golden life, and supporting child happiness allowances for happy families."

Finally, he stated, "I will always keep in my heart the determination to think only of a happy Sunchang for all residents and run forward, and I will always work together with the residents to turn dreams and visions into reality."

Meanwhile, following the county administration briefing session, Mayor Choi Young-il moved to hold a press briefing on the achievements of the first year of his administration and future plans, and continued a day of communication with residents by holding a meeting with students to explain educational policies and gather opinions from youth.
