Choi Ho-gwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo District, conducted a 4,000-step plogging activity on the morning of the 20th in the Dangsan-dong area as the first 'Volunteer Day' event of the new year.

On this day, Mayor Choi attended the 'Send-off Ceremony' held at the Yeongdeungpo Community Center Square, reaffirming his commitment to practicing neighborly love and spreading a culture of volunteering. Afterwards, about 60 people including district employees, the Volunteer Association, North Korean defectors, and foreign residents walked from Yeongdeungpo Art Hall to the Yeongdeungpo Wholesale Market intersection, picking up household waste along the way.



Choi Ho-gwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo District, stated, "This 'Volunteer Day' is an environmental cleanup activity where we walk through every corner of the neighborhood picking up trash to welcome the new year," adding, "We will continue to lead efforts to care for every corner of our society and spread the warmth of heartfelt love."
