Gumi Municipal Choir Resumes 'Visiting Outdoor Concert' Series

On a beautiful day in October, an unexpected harmony echoed through the production line that had temporarily stopped operating. The workers were joyfully recalling the autumn romance they had forgotten over the past three years.


The outdoor concert by the Gumi City Choir, who visited the workplace during the lunch break when company employees paused their work, was held on the afternoon of the 5th at the LIG Nex1 Gumi House.


With employees gathered as ‘surprise’ audience members, various genres of choir and solo performances, including popular songs and opera, continued as everyone clapped and breathed along with the melodies.

The ‘Lunch Outdoor Concert’ held in 2018 and 2019 had stopped due to COVID-19 but was revived this year with its third performance.


The choir stated that they promote cultural performances as a happy workplace creation project in front of employees who sweat to achieve annual production goals.


The choir decided to offer outdoor performances during workers’ breaks at the wisteria shelter of Gumi House, which is especially beautiful in spring and autumn. The concept is an outdoor concert where employees can comfortably watch after lunch in the shelter.


Led by conductor Park Jin-woo, the Gumi City Choir holds an annual invitation concert at LIG Nex1 Gumi House and plans to get closer to Gumi citizens through visiting concerts.


The Gumi City Choir was founded in December 1989 and has been reaching out to citizens with 2 to 3 regular concerts and numerous special performances every year for the development of local culture and arts.



A choir official said, “Through cultural activities that bring the choir and citizens together, as well as many performances such as the Saturday Yard at the Arts Center, we are striving to transform digital city Gumi into a city of culture.”
