The 'Munsan Indoor Badminton Court' will be built with a total project cost of 6 billion won at 51-26, Imjin-ri, Munsan-eup. The facility will be a single-story building with six badminton courts, and is scheduled for completion in December 2025.

The construction of the Munsan Indoor Badminton Court is significant in that it allows for the separation of sports facility functions within Munsan Sports Park, enabling citizens to enjoy leisure activities and recreational sports in a more pleasant environment.

Until now, the Munsan National Sports Center had combined the use of its auditorium, basketball court, and badminton court, causing significant inconvenience for users. In response, Paju City decided to build a separate indoor badminton court in order to clearly distinguish the functions and purposes of each sports facility, fully meeting the requirements for each sport and thereby promoting more efficient operation.

Meanwhile, to address the inconvenience caused by a lack of parking at the Munsan National Sports Center, the city established a temporary public parking lot with 101 spaces at 51-19, Imjin-ri, near the center, which has been in full operation since May. Regarding the frequent safety accidents caused by the narrow entrance road to the sports park, the city plans to improve visibility by installing acceleration and deceleration lanes, thereby eliminating inconvenience.

Kim Kyoungil, Mayor of Paju, stated, "We will continue to make efforts to improve the health and leisure of local residents and to expand the infrastructure for recreational sports."
