From the 10th to November 30th, Expansion of Welcome Gift Support for New Residents Including Youth... First 600 Youth Selected on a First-Come, First-Served Basis, Apply via Eunpyeong-gu Blog 'EunbitSOL Life'... Dual Benefits from Moving-in Support to Early Detection and Service Connection for Isolated Households

Seoul Eunpyeong-gu (District Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) announced that it will expand the target of the single-person household moving-in life support program ‘Eunbit SOL Life’ from middle-aged to young adults.

‘Eunbit SOL Life’ is a project that supports the moving-in ‘life’ for shining ‘solo’ (SOLO) residents of ‘Eunpyeong,’ providing newcomers with a comprehensive guidebook and a ‘Welcome Happiness Box’ containing daily necessities for their new life.

The expanded target group includes 600 single-person households aged 19 to 39 (born between 1984 and 2004) who have moved to Eunpyeong-gu from other cities, provinces, or districts this year, on a first-come, first-served basis.

The application period is from the 10th of this month until November 30. Applications can be submitted through the online form in the ‘Eunbit SOL Life’ post on the district’s blog. It is also possible to apply in person at the Family Policy Division of Eunpyeong-gu Office.

The basic contents of the ‘Welcome Happiness Box’ include a comprehensive guidebook and a first aid kit. Applicants can choose one of three optional sets: ‘Safety Set,’ ‘Home Training Set,’ or ‘Daily Life Set.’ The ‘Safety Set’ contains safety-related items such as fingerprint protection film and throwable fire extinguishers. The ‘Home Training Set’ includes exercise aids like yoga mats and stretching bands, while the ‘Daily Life Set’ consists of items such as tissue paper and toothpaste.

Eunpyeong-gu plans to verify eligibility and begin sequential delivery from November 6.

When applying, applicants will also complete a ‘Living Condition Survey’ designed with items to assess the risk of solitary death. The district aims to identify isolated and reclusive young adults early and connect those in need with tailored social and emotional support services to reintegrate isolated households into society.

For middle-aged newcomers, applications can be submitted as before at the local community service center or online until December.

Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, said, “Through this expanded support, we hope that not only middle-aged but also young adults will settle stably in Eunpyeong-gu. We expect that preventing the isolation issues of young adults from extending to middle-aged people will ultimately help prevent solitary deaths in the long term.”
