Since proposing the creation of the Yongsan Station complex sports facility to Dalseo District Office in January 2023, Daegu Transportation Corporation succeeded in securing a budget of 1 billion KRW from Dalseo-gu after persistent efforts including project presentations and on-site inspections over the course of a year.

Yongsan Station on Daegu Metro Line 2 is a major hub station in the Dalseo area, surrounded by an apartment complex of 25,000 households, 10 elementary, middle, and high schools, a highway interchange, Homeplus, and a large public parking lot, offering top-level accessibility and user environment. The establishment of the sports facility is expected to greatly contribute to expanding the base of youth sports activities in the region.

Kim Ki-hyuk, President of Daegu Transportation Corporation, said, “We will strive to develop the area into a landmark representing the region by additionally attracting youth game and play facilities that can create synergy with the complex sports facility in the idle space of Yongsan Station.”
