Future plans for the development of Gaegun-myeon in 2026 were also presented, including △operating the Gaegun Public Bath (Hub Activation Center) △connecting the Hyangricheon Bridge with the Angdeok-Hajapo bicycle path △and creating an azalea colony on Chueupsan Mountain. The policy direction, focusing on establishing a bicycle special zone, developing tourism resources, and expanding resident-centered welfare facilities, was explained in terms residents could relate to, drawing significant interest.

During the final session for dialogue with residents, a variety of suggestions closely related to daily life were raised, such as △installing traffic lights and roundabouts △securing public parking lots and launching the Gaegun Circulation Bus △undergrounding power lines and installing parking spaces in the Gaegun-myeon downtown area △and proposing the construction of a new town office.
