Up to 5 Million Won for Fire-Affected Residents

Gohung-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Gong Young-min) announced that it is implementing a support project for fire waste disposal costs for residents who suffered damage to buildings due to fire.


The purpose is to contribute to the prompt stabilization of the lives of affected residents through more practical post-support by providing fire waste disposal cost support to residents who suffered fire damage.

The support targets all residents registered and actually residing in Gohung-gun who have suffered fire damage. Depending on the extent of fire damage, support is provided up to 5 million KRW for total loss, 3 million KRW for half loss, and 2 million KRW for partial loss. If the waste disposal cost is less than the support amount, only the actual disposal cost can be supported. However, vacant houses, illegal buildings, intentional fires, and cases where the same support has already been received are excluded from support.


Applications for support must be submitted within 14 days after disposing of the fire waste by visiting the relevant eup/myeon office with the application form, fire damage certificate, waste disposal receipt, and other supporting documents. For more details, inquiries can be made to the Disaster Safety Division or the eup/myeon office.


A county official said, “We hope this will be of some help to residents who suffer not only material damage but also additional hardships such as arranging temporary shelter and waste disposal due to unexpected fires.”
