Jindo County was awarded the Excellence Award for ranking among the top six out of all 297 Eup, Myeon, and Dong units, thanks to Gogun-myeon's "Creating a Clean Gogun Blooming All Four Seasons" project, which received high marks.
Gogun-myeon established a collaborative system with local organizations such as the Residents' Association, Village Leaders’ Association, Youth Association, Women’s Association, and Seniors’ Association, focusing on the intensive management of 41 major tourist attractions-including the Mysterious Sea Route and Gagye Beach-and promoting flower garden creation projects.
These efforts have led to improvements in both the tourism environment and the living environment, and are considered to have contributed to Jindo County’s strong performance in various policy evaluations.
County Governor Kim Heesu stated, "This award is thanks to the active efforts of our staff in the field and the cooperation of residents," and added, "We will continue to pursue on-site administration that our citizens can truly experience."
Meanwhile, Jindo County plans to continuously strengthen the region’s competitiveness through policies that combine resident-participatory administration with tourism environment improvement.
