About 40 participants, including residents of wildfire-affected areas, related officials, and contractors, attended the meeting to review the final report, gather opinions, and discuss future plans.


This project approached the issue with four strategies: ▲Sustainable forests and ecosystems ▲Forests that revitalize the region ▲Remembering and overcoming the pain of loss ▲Forests that offer rest and enjoyment. Based on these, twelve projects were identified: ① Sustainable Ecological Coexistence Forest (National Mountain Ecology Center) ② Nagok Everyone's Forest (Fire-Resistant Forest & Garden) ③ National East Coast Wildfire Prevention Center ④ Income-Generating Food Forest ⑤ Uljin Carbon Offset Forest ⑥ Apiary Specialized Forest ⑦ Forest of Memory, Dohwa ⑧ East-West Trail Center ⑨ Pet-Friendly Golf Resort ⑩ Shiitake Mushroom Report, Eat, and Festival ⑪ Deokgu Healing & Garden Forest ⑫ Uljin Play Forest. Each major project was categorized into short- and mid-to-long-term phases, and priorities were established.



County Governor Son Byung-bok stated, "The 'Deokgu Healing & Garden Forest' project, for which the budget has been secured, should be promptly promoted with active administrative support." He added, "For the other mid- to long-term projects, we will review whether there are new approaches, then establish project plans and reflect them in the budget."
