Despite the cold weather, more than 100 residents attended the event. As in the previous year, Christmas trees and street lights were installed at the roundabout in front of the county office and at the three-way roundabout in front of Yangpyeong Presbyterian Church. Notably, street lighting was set up from Yangpyeong Station to the Namhangang Terrace, allowing residents to enjoy an even more beautiful winter night view at the Namhangang Terrace, which has become a new relaxation spot.

The lighting ceremony began with a carol performance by the Yangpyeong Pops Orchestra, further enhancing the festive atmosphere and engaging the local community. The first part of the event featured a celebratory worship service for the lighting of the Christmas tree, organized by the Yangpyeong County Christian Association. In the second part, County Governor Jeon Jinseon, Yangpyeong County Council Chairperson Oh Hyeja, Pastor Kim Ilhyeon (Guksu Church, former president of the Yangpyeong County Christian Association), Pastor Kim Seonwoo (Cheongun Jeil Church, senior vice president), and other association members participated in the lighting ceremony together.

County Governor Jeon Jinseon stated, "Just as the lights of the tree and street lighting brighten the darkness, I hope that the spirit of love and sharing will spread throughout Yangpyeong, bringing hope to our community. I also wish that the lights we have illuminated today will create a warm year-end and New Year atmosphere, making all Yangpyeong residents happy."

Meanwhile, this year, a Maeryeok Yangpyeong logo sculpture was installed at the Namhangang Terrace observatory, and star-shaped decorations were placed on the street lamps, further enriching the nighttime winter landscape. The Maeryeok Yangpyeong logo sculptures installed at the front of Yangpyeong Station and Namhangang Terrace symbolize the beginning and end of the street lighting. The Christmas trees and street lights will be illuminated from December 1 until February next year.
