Operations were temporarily suspended due to the recent heavy rains, but with the increase in residents visiting the park due to the heat this month, the fountain has been restarted to help residents beat the summer heat.

The wall fountain, now in operation, provides a visual attraction for citizens looking to cool off with refreshing water streams.

The wall fountain is scheduled to operate until October 9, with the waterfall running from noon to 6 p.m., and the fountain operating from 1 p.m. to 10 p.m. in two-hour intervals for 10 to 15 minutes each time.

At night, the colorful changing lights combined with the water streams of the musical fountain create a special resting space for midsummer nights.

Lee Heon-hyeon, head of the Urban Regeneration Division, said, "We hope that feeling the cool waterfall and musical fountain will bring a small vitality to the daily lives of residents tired from the heat."
