However, he made it clear that the council would also faithfully fulfill its fundamental role of providing oversight and checks.

Chairman Kang stated, "Oversight and checks by the council are important responsibilities entrusted to us by the citizens. For issues that require criticism and examination, the council will responsibly carry out its role and functions of providing oversight."

He added, "When the council and the executive branch respect and trust each other and cooperate on this basis, we will be able to achieve even greater outcomes in making Seongnam a happier city for its citizens."
