The Manifesto Promise Awards are presented annually to local council members across the country, divided into the 'Pledge Implementation' and 'Outstanding Ordinance' categories, to strengthen the capabilities of local councils and build public trust. In particular, the Outstanding Ordinance category is evaluated comprehensively, considering the timeliness and effectiveness of legislation, as well as its contributions to improving citizens' quality of life through ordinance enactment.

Representative ordinances selected in the 'Outstanding Ordinance' category include: the Ordinance on the Submission of Documents to the Mokpo City Council; the Ordinance on Creating a Youth-Friendly City in Mokpo; the Ordinance on Creating a Marriage-Friendly City in Mokpo; and the Mokpo City Artificial Intelligence Basic Ordinance.

Yoo stated, "Ordinances are the autonomous regulations that most closely affect our daily lives, so I hope this award will serve as an opportunity to highlight the importance and utility of ordinances. I will not be satisfied with this award, but will continue to work hard to enact ordinances for citizens and to fulfill my promises through communication and empathy-driven legislative activities."

Meanwhile, the award ceremony is scheduled to be held on the 27th at Yeongdeungpo Art Hall in Seoul.
