Although the demand for park golf has been steadily increasing recently, Gangbuk-gu has faced difficulties securing outdoor park golf course sites because about 57% of the district's total area is designated as park green space.

Accordingly, the district decided to promote the installation of indoor park golf courses as an alternative to outdoor courses by utilizing idle spaces within district-owned buildings such as the Gangbuk Sports Complex and the Gangbuk Culture and Arts Center.

In particular, the screen park golf course to be established on the basement first floor (94.64㎡) of the Gangbuk Sports Complex will feature two open-type hitting bays along with a lounge and community space, allowing people to enjoy exercise in a comfortable environment.
