The meetings held over two days on the 8th and 9th in Deokgye-dong, Pyeongsan-dong, Seochang-dong, and Soju-dong were attended by Mayor Na Dong-yeon, local provincial and city council members, relevant officials, community leaders, heads of organizations, and citizens. Through city information reports, major projects in eastern Yangsan such as the Hoeyagang Renaissance and Wongsang Renewal projects were shared. The meetings served as a communication platform where residents voiced various opinions on local issues and civil complaints, fostering mutual understanding and engagement.

During the Wongsang four dongs meetings, various opinions were presented, including △ the re-promotion of the Deokgye urban planning road connecting the new Deokgye district to Wongsang-daero △ requests for the installation of a temporary public parking lot in Pyeongsan Mukja Alley △ requests for road maintenance such as the entrance road to Cheonseong Rivertown complex △ proposals to extend the Hoeyagang riverside walking trail from Wongsang Cultural Center to Dangchon Bridge. These discussions broadly addressed the difficulties and demands residents face in their daily lives.

Yangsan City plans to promptly inspect the sites and discuss solutions for the complaints and suggestions raised during the tour meetings, seeking practical response measures. Projects requiring significant budgets will be prioritized based on urgency and gradually implemented.

Mayor Na Dong-yeon stated, “We will thoroughly review all submitted suggestions and reflect them in city administration.” He added, “Communication is the driving force behind city governance, and we will create changes that citizens can feel through policies that incorporate voices from the field.”
