On the 4th, Pohang City held a groundbreaking ceremony for the 'Dagachi Center,' a complex cultural welfare space promoted as part of the rural hub revitalization project in Heunghae-eup, at the Heunghae Indoor Gymnasium.

The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by about 500 people, including Mayor Lee Gang-deok, City Council Chairman Baek In-gyu, heads of various organizations, and residents, celebrating the start of the Rural Hub Revitalization Project.

The Heunghae-eup Rural Hub Revitalization Project aims to improve residents' quality of life and revitalize the community through regional development by investing a total project cost of 15 billion KRW (10.5 billion KRW national funds, 4.5 billion KRW city funds) in the Oksung-ri area of Heunghae-eup by 2025, providing cultural and welfare service facilities to local residents.

In particular, the complex cultural welfare space 'Dagachi Center' aims to significantly enhance the previously insufficient resident convenience facilities in Heunghae-eup by establishing a book cafe, education rooms, club rooms, youth culture rooms, audiovisual rooms, training rooms, cultural rooms, cooking education centers, multipurpose auditoriums, and sound equipment rooms.

Once the 'Dagachi Center' opens, it is expected to meet the educational, welfare, and cultural demands of local residents through the operation of various programs for leisure and health promotion for Heunghae-eup residents.

Additionally, Pohang City plans to use this project as an opportunity to connect the Heunghae-eup area with its surrounding villages and to resolve cultural and welfare imbalances between urban and rural areas, thereby greatly improving living conditions.

Mayor Lee Gang-deok stated, "By strengthening the role of the hub center through the Rural Hub Revitalization Project, we will focus administrative efforts to promote balanced development throughout Pohang City through mutual growth with the surrounding villages."
