Gangnam-gu (District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong) will hold the "Christmas Healing Day" event on the 16th from 1 PM to 6 PM at the Gangnam Healing Center Gaepo Branch (39 Samsung-ro 3-gil).

In celebration of the upcoming Christmas and year-end, the district planned a year-end event featuring the Healing Center's unique content. Visitors can take a moment to heal by making various Christmas decorations themselves in a warm space with a large tree and carols.

First, a 4-meter tall tree will be installed on the outdoor lawn plaza of the center to create a fantastic Christmas atmosphere, and a photo zone will be set up in front of the tree so visitors can leave beautiful memories.

Additionally, a Christmas market selling MBTI candles, wool hats, scarves, and eco-friendly business card wallets will be held, allowing visitors to purchase small items to commemorate the year-end and New Year.

Various experience events will take place at the Forest Cafe inside the center. Anyone visiting the center can create eco-friendly Christmas ornaments using only paper without glue, and spend healing time coloring wood fancy items. For 150 people who applied in advance, there will be a session to make charming Christmas items such as wreaths, aroma candles, and hand-sewn coasters. Furthermore, 200 Christmas cards will be provided so visitors can write handwritten letters to their loved ones.

The group healing zone inside the center will transform into a performance hall on the day of the event. Traditional Korean and Western musical instruments will blend to perform Christmas carols with a unique tone. An acoustic band that soothes the mind, an exciting magic show, and a classical concert will be held in sequence, enhancing the warm year-end atmosphere.

Jo Seong-myeong, Mayor of Gangnam-gu, said, "I hope this event will be a warm healing gift like Christmas for the residents who have worked hard through a challenging year," and added, "Next year, we will continue to operate differentiated programs unique to the Healing Center to create a Gangnam that provides higher-quality happiness to its residents."
