The newly released pledge book, under the slogan "Beyond Communication, Direct Connection," includes practical policy proposals refined over the past several months through on-site feedback from expert groups and citizens.

In particular, the pledge book contains detailed measures aimed at addressing the everyday inconveniences experienced by Gwangju residents.

It provides in-depth descriptions of pledges to revitalize local businesses, such as the Jungbu-region Metropolitan Express Railway, the undergrounding of Line 57 including the Pangyo-Opo urban railway section, and balanced regional development plans for outlying areas, raising high expectations among residents.

Preliminary candidate Park Gwanyul emphasized, "This pledge book is the most sacred promise to voters and serves as the blueprint for Gwangju’s great transformation," adding, "Rather than making populist promises simply to win votes, I have filled it only with feasible policies that are truly necessary for Gwangju, drawing on my extensive administrative experience as a Gyeonggi Provincial Assembly member and carrying forward the philosophy of the Lee Jaemyung administration."

Park Gwanyul's policy pledge book can be purchased by anyone at local bookstores in Gwangju, and the campaign also plans to run a "citizen-participatory policy supplement" initiative that gathers additional suggestions from citizens via social media.
