Yangpyeong County said on October 27 that it held a “Ninth Administration Campaign Pledge Project Briefing” on October 26. The event included presenting appointment certificates to the pledge implementation assessment panel, an explanation of county administration, an overview of the pledge projects, and reports on progress with key pledges.

The pledges for the ninth popularly elected administration are based on the vision of “A Yangpyeong Where People and Nature Thrive” and organized around four main directions for county administration. They comprise 35 pledges on revitalizing the local economy and promoting residents’ happiness; 30 on creating a Yangpyeong where young people and older adults can thrive together; 35 on revitalizing agriculture and tourism; and 20 on building a new Yangpyeong for future generations, for a total of 120 pledges.

The county is giving priority to 17 key pledges among these projects. At the briefing, participants shared progress on each key pledge and future plans, and discussed ways to strengthen implementation.

The assessment panel will gather input from different fields, including administration, the economy, welfare, agriculture and tourism, as well as from the county’s towns and townships. It will review progress on the pledges and help ensure residents’ voices are reflected in county administration.

Yangpyeong County Governor Jeon Jinseon said, “The 120 pledges for the ninth popularly elected administration are precious promises for the next 100 years of Yangpyeong’s future, which we will build together with our residents. I will do my utmost to ensure that every pledge brings tangible changes to residents’ daily lives and lays the foundation for new growth and development in Attractive Yangpyeong.”

The county plans to publish the pledge projects for its ninth popularly elected administration on the county office website in November 2026. Starting in January 2027, it will hold quarterly briefings on the projects with the assessment panel to review progress.
