On December 3, Mokpo City in South Jeolla Province successfully held the "2025 Community Social Security Council Performance Sharing Event" at the Mokpo Seafood Distribution Center.


According to the city on December 4, the event was organized to share the achievements of welfare projects carried out throughout the year with citizens and to reflect on the collaborative system built jointly by the public and private sectors.


The event was attended by Cho Seokhoon, Acting Mayor (Deputy Mayor) of Mokpo City, Noh Yeontaek, the private chairperson, as well as over 250 participants, including council members from 23 districts, filling the venue.


The performance sharing event featured a variety of programs, including a video presentation on 2025 activities, awards for distinguished contributors, a performance by the Dream Silver Choir of the Hadang Senior Welfare Center, a performance by singer Jeong Okrye as part of the "Traveling Cultural Connection" program by the Mokpo Cultural City Center, and a sand art performance. In particular, welfare practice cases introduced directly by local residents resonated deeply with the audience.


This year, the council actively implemented specialized welfare projects based on public-private cooperation, such as identifying welfare blind spots, checking in on single-person households, and child care initiatives, thereby contributing to the improvement of local welfare standards.



Acting Mayor Cho Seokhoon stated, "The Community Social Security Council is a reliable partner in Mokpo City's welfare," adding, "We will continue to build a more robust welfare safety net through collaboration between the public and private sectors."
