More than 200 people attended the event, including County Governor Shim Deokseop, Gochang County Council Chairman Cho Minkyu, county council members, heads of local organizations, and residents.


The Sangham-myeon Health Center was built as a two-story building with a total floor area of 359.97 square meters, with a total project cost of 1.581 billion won invested since January last year. Equipped with a variety of medical devices and convenience facilities, it will provide residents with comfortable healthcare services.


Previously, in 1998, the existing health center in Sangham-myeon was closed when the "Haeri Integrated Health Center" was established by consolidating the Sangha, Haeri, and Simwon health centers.


Revived after 28 years, the Sangha Health Center is expected to play an important role in improving the health and quality of life of local residents by offering internal medicine and Korean medicine services, as well as community-tailored health projects and preventive programs.



County Governor Shim Deokseop stated, "We have established a foundation for rural residents to receive high-quality medical services," adding, "We will continue to create a pleasant health environment so that Gochang County can become a healthier community."
