He emphasized, "This is not simply a matter of hiring staff; it marks an important starting point for creating more practical and executable policies, based on the experience and capabilities of those who have actually led Changwon's administration."

He added, "Their experience and expertise will not be limited to mere consultation," and continued, "We will concretize their input into core policies that will drive Changwon's economic resurgence and improve residential conditions."

The individuals recruited by Song include the following eight people: Seo Jeongguk, former head of Uichang District; Kang Byeonggon, former head of Masanhappo District; Park Juya, former head of Masanhoewon District; Kim Seongho, former head of Jinhae District; Lee Chunsu, former head of the Blue City Project Office; Yoon Seonhan, former Director of Administration; Gong Cheolbae, former Director of Citizen Safety; and Ahn Byeongo, former head of Seongsan District.

Each of them will be responsible for sectors such as industry, urban affairs, welfare, marine and fisheries, environment, administrative management, safety, and planning. Their roles include policy proposals, verifying the feasibility of pledges, and conducting legal reviews.

Song stated, "I have brought them on board with the determination to create achievable pledges and to shape the future administration of Changwon together." He further said, "We will continue to broaden our policy network by bringing in experts from academia, research, and civil society, so that we can collaboratively design the future of Changwon."
