This rally was organized to spread the enthusiasm of Gijang residents for the KTX-Eum stop nationwide and to reaffirm that having a stop in Gijang is not a choice but a necessity. Led by the Chasung Cultural Festival Promotion Committee, the event was held in conjunction with the opening ceremony of the 18th Chasung Cultural Festival (October 12-13).


Residents who attended the event chanted together, "KTX-Eum stop to Gijang!" uniting their earnest wishes to attract the station. During the earlier township parades, residents also carried placards and banners expressing their hope for the KTX-Eum stop, making it clear that securing the stop is the top priority for Gijang County.


County Mayor Jeong Jongbok stated, "Since March, the relay of pan-county support messages and the ongoing performances to attract the stop, with participation from all walks of life in the community, have continued. I sincerely hope that the unwavering desire of our residents will reach beyond the region to Korail and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport."
