District Mayor Lee Soo-hee stated, "I hope that Gangdong-gu and Pocheon-si will visit each other more frequently following this agreement ceremony, and that residents will enjoy each other's excellent cultural and tourism resources. I look forward to Gangdong-gu, which will rise as the center of eastern Seoul, and Pocheon-si, the center of northern Gyeonggi-do, to achieve mutual development in various fields."
