Gwangju Nam-gu Opens Hyochon Cultural Complex Community Center

The newly constructed Hyocheon Cultural Complex Community Center in Nam-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, opened its doors on the 1st.

As a living SOC complex facility aimed at improving residents' quality of life, it is expected to become a key gathering place where diverse people meet, engage in active communication, and satisfy their cultural needs.

According to Nam-gu on the 1st, the opening ceremony of the Hyocheon Cultural Complex Community Center was held at 4 p.m. in the multipurpose room on the first floor of the center.

Nam-gu was selected in 2019 for the government-led Living SOC Complex Project and invested 9.145 billion KRW to build the Hyocheon Cultural Complex Community Center.

The natural environment of the Hyocheon district, surrounded by forests, was reflected in the building design. To allow residents to feel the breath of nature within the center, full glass windows were installed throughout the building to maximize natural lighting.

Additionally, solar power facilities were installed on the rooftop to minimize energy consumption, and meeting and resting spaces were created so that all residents can spend comfortable time in this cultural gathering place.

The Hyocheon Cultural Complex Community Center is a four-story building, with the first floor serving as a living culture center space, and from the second to the fourth floors houses the Hyocheon Eoullim Library, the fourth public library in the district.

Also, parking lots were provided on the second and third floors above ground to enhance convenience for users.

A Nam-gu official stated, "We are promoting various living SOC complex projects to provide a better life for residents and to make Nam-gu the best place to live in South Korea. The Hyocheon Cultural Complex Community Center will be a space for communication and meetings and will be greatly loved as a cultural gathering place for residents."
