In his address at the Rodeo Street in Hyangnam 2 New Town, attended by around 3,000 citizens, candidate Jeong stated, "Together with governor candidate Chu Mi-ae, provincial assembly candidates Lee Honggeun, Oh Jintaek, Oh Hyeonjeong, as well as city council candidates Lee Gyecheol (ticket 1-na), Choi Eunhui (ticket 1-ga), and Song Hyeonmi, we have formed a one-team alliance. Through the extension of the Shinbundang Line, we will develop Hyangnam into a double-station area connected to the Seohae Line." He reiterated this commitment.

Jeong continued, "By introducing the Hwaseong Circular Railway, we will create a foundation for balanced development by connecting Dongtan, Bongdam, Namyang, and Hyangnam, and then linking back to Dongtan." He also stressed, "We will quickly realize the railway connector between the Seohae Line and the Gyeongbu Line to reshape Hwaseong’s transportation map. Connecting the railway network will invigorate balanced regional development and dramatically improve access to the Seoul metropolitan area."

Once the Shinbundang Line is extended and the Seohae Line is connected to the Gyeongbu Line, it will be possible to travel not only to Seoul from Hyangnam-eup or Joam by rail, but also to move nationwide using the Gyeongbu Line, Honam Line, and other railways.

Additionally, candidate Jeong held the "Hwaseong Special City Policy Delivery Ceremony" which included plans to promote rationalization of greenbelt and agricultural promotion area regulations, and to expand metropolitan, express, and airport bus routes. Together with governor candidate Chu Mi-ae, he participated in a "Hwaseong Train" departure performance.

Candidate Chu Mi-ae promised to fulfill her commitment with candidate Jeong to "open an era of 30-minute commutes from Hyangnam to Seoul," and declared, "We will shift the paradigm from moving in before transportation measures are in place, to implementing transportation solutions first and then allowing residents to move in, thereby enacting policies focused on citizen convenience."

Meanwhile, the campaign event was attended by National Assembly members Song Okju (Hwaseong-gap) and Kim Hyeonjeong (Pyeongtaek-byeong), former lawmaker Yang Gidae (Gwangmyeong), and former Blue House senior administrator Jin Seokbeom, who spoke as guest speakers. They emphasized the one-team spirit and appealed for support, calling for the election of Democratic Party candidates to "judge the party of insurrection."
