Explaining the background of her support, Park stated, "As an artist, it has always pained me to see the old town area deteriorating, and I have long believed it should be revived through the power of culture and the arts. Na Youngmin is the only person who has consistently communicated with me on this issue and genuinely empathized with my concerns," she emphasized.

Na Youngmin expressed his gratitude, saying, "Having Park Seulgi, a member of the Dokgotak family—a symbol of hope for our generation—serve as honorary chairman feels like gaining a thousand reinforcements." He added, "Just as Dokgotak overcame adversity and stood up again, I, Na Youngmin, will also revive Gimcheon's economy and culture to become a mayor who instills pride in our citizens."

The two have agreed to combine Gimcheon's valuable assets with cultural content and sports to create a new city brand, with a particular focus on revitalizing the neglected old downtown area through cultural energy.
