Blueprint Unveiled for Attracting Major Corporations to Hwawon Industrial Complex

Pledge for a “Stay-Type Economic Belt” Where Industry and Tourism Coexist

Demonstration of Democratic Party One-Team Unity... Urging Participation in Early Voting

On the last day of early voting, Myung Hyun-kwan, the Democratic Party candidate for Haenam County Governor, visited Hwawon Oil Market on the 30th and announced a blueprint for the “Great Transformation of Haenam's Industrial Map,” centered on attracting large-scale companies and building industrial infrastructure, in a final push to solidify voter support.


Myung outlined his vision to overcome the crisis of local extinction by linking the attraction of major corporations with youth job creation and educational innovation, aiming to elevate Haenam into “the top local government in Korea.” Joining the campaign event on site were Kim Seong-il, candidate for councilor of the Jeonnam-Gwangju Integrated Special City, as well as Kim Mi-sook and Lee Seong-ok, candidates for Haenam County Council, demonstrating the strong unity of the Democratic Party’s “One-Team.”

Myung emphasized, “By joining forces with fellow Democratic Party candidates, I will revitalize Haenam’s economy and reward the residents with a practical vision that will ensure their prosperity and livelihoods.”


He identified the “Hwawon Industrial Complex” as the core engine for Haenam’s future economic growth. Highlighting the successful attraction of global conglomerate LS Cable’s offshore wind equipment facilities and port infrastructure, Myung pledged to combine these assets with the Hwawon Coastal Road infrastructure to develop the area into a major tourism hub.


In particular, he plans to build large-scale, customized mixed-use lodging and convenience facilities to accommodate incoming buyers and workers from outside the region, thereby establishing a “stay-type economic belt where industry and tourism coexist.”


For the ultimate goal of his future vision, Myung pointed to “developing local talent with a people-centered approach.” Leveraging the activation of the Hwawon Industrial Complex, he intends to strengthen partnerships with leading domestic companies such as Samsung to create high-quality jobs for young people in the region.


To realize this, he pledged to turn Haenam Technical High School into “Korea’s first AI and Energy Meister High School.” His strong commitment is to establish a virtuous ecosystem in which young people born and raised in Haenam learn world-class advanced technology and settle in local major companies. Wrapping up his campaign, Myung earnestly called on residents to participate in early voting, which closes at 6 p.m. that day.



He reiterated, “Today is the final day of early voting, which will determine Haenam’s uninterrupted leap forward and the success of critical advanced industrial projects. For those who cannot vote on the main election day, I urge you to cast your valuable ballot before early voting ends and give overwhelming support to the Democratic Party One-Team candidates, proven to be competent public servants.”
