The Disaster Management Evaluation is a system in which the Ministry of the Interior and Safety comprehensively assesses the disaster management capabilities-including prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery-of 335 disaster management agencies nationwide (26 central government agencies, 66 public institutions, and 243 local governments).

In this year's evaluation, Boseong County scored a total of 96.2 points, significantly exceeding the national average of 80.9 points. In particular, the county received a perfect score (100 points) in the disaster recovery category, proving its exceptional crisis response capabilities in on-site management, disaster relief, and recovery project implementation. As a result, Boseong County will receive a commendation from the Minister of the Interior and Safety along with a reward of 4 million won.

It is evaluated that this achievement was made possible by Boseong County's ongoing efforts to strengthen its field-oriented disaster response system, including pre-inspections of disaster-prone areas, response drills simulating extreme disaster situations, and resident-participation safety culture campaigns and education.

Kim Cheolwoo, Governor of Boseong County, stated, "This award is the result of the combined efforts of our residents and public officials, and it was only possible because everyone worked together." He added, "We will continue to strengthen our areas of excellence and supplement our weaknesses to create a safer Boseong where residents can live with peace of mind."
