This evaluation was carried out from January to March of this year, covering 226 basic local governments nationwide. The comprehensive assessment graded each municipality based on five categories: completion of pledge implementation, achievement of goals, resident communication, web communication, and consistency of pledges.

Eunpyeong District is currently pursuing 70 pledge projects across economic, transportation, climate, environmental, safety, education, welfare, and cultural/sports sectors, earning high marks for overall pledge implementation and project performance. The district received positive reviews for actively reflecting resident opinions in the implementation process through a citizens’ jury, as well as for publicly releasing the status of pledge implementation, financial execution details, and external evaluation results on the district’s website.

The district is promoting 70 pledge projects in five key areas as part of the 8th election term administrative vision: becoming a new economic and transportation hub, making Eunpyeong a desirable place for everyone to live, creating a child-friendly community, embracing inclusivity, and establishing itself as a leading city for culture and the arts.

An Eunpyeong District official stated, “This achievement is the result of both the dedicated efforts of our staff, who have done their utmost in challenging circumstances, and the ongoing interest of our residents. We will continue to focus our capacity on responsible administration based on the trust of the community.”
