A total of 1,176 residents took part in the event, enjoying a variety of programs and spending meaningful time together.


The event was organized to raise awareness among local residents about the importance of urban regeneration projects, promote the role of the Waglewagle Center built through such projects, and revitalize the community. Notably, the Waglewagle Center, where the festival was held, is the first key facility established as part of Yangju City's urban regeneration initiative, adding special significance to the festival.


The festival featured a variety of programs, including a children's flea market, hands-on activities for children and families, a magic show, a stamp tour, and a food market. Thanks to the active participation of residents, the event helped strengthen the local community and increased awareness of urban regeneration projects.


In particular, residents who participated in the 'Creative Playground Activation Consulting and Program Operation' took the lead in running the hands-on programs themselves. This demonstrated that even after the completion of the urban regeneration project, residents could continue to utilize the key facility on their own initiative, further deepening the significance of urban regeneration in contributing to community revitalization.


A citizen who attended the festival commented, "I had no idea there was a place in our neighborhood offering such a variety of programs. I enjoyed being able to participate in various activities with my children, and I look forward to taking part in more programs at the center in the future."



Lee Dongseop, Head of the Urban Regeneration Division of Yangju City, expressed his gratitude, saying, "I would like to thank all the residents who actively participated and made the festival truly worthy of the center's name. Through this festival, I hope the presence and role of the Waglewagle Center will be firmly established among local residents, becoming a new hub of vitality for the community."
