As part of the 79th Live Communication Field program that day, Mayor Park visited, in order, the Gwangmyeong Energy Self-Sufficiency Community Facility construction site, rental housing for vulnerable groups in Cheolsan-dong, the Woori Children's Park improvement project site, and the Dodeoksan Children's Forest Experience Center.

The first stop was the site of a community facility designed to be energy self-sufficient, which is scheduled for completion in November. Located near Holssi Park in Haan-dong, the facility is a two-story, energy self-sufficient building constructed using modular methods. Once complete, it will serve as a community facility.

Mayor Park reviewed the construction progress and urged the relevant departments to manage the work carefully so residents can use the facility conveniently.

He then checked on the progress of the purchased rental housing program at the site of rental housing for vulnerable groups in Cheolsan-dong. The city has purchased five units in multi-family homes in Gwangmyeong-dong, Cheolsan-dong, and Soha-dong, and plans to begin renovation work in February 2027.

At Woori Children's Park in Gwangmyeong 6-dong, he reviewed complaints raised during the "Visiting Dialogue with Residents" for the Gwangmyeong area on October 7, as well as progress on improvement work. The city is undertaking renovations to the restrooms and repairs to the outdoor stage, among other work, at a total project cost of 900 million won. The project is scheduled for completion in November.

Finally, he visited the Dodeoksan Children's Forest Experience Center to review its operations and consider ways to expand its educational functions. He also discussed operational improvements with the relevant departments to increase use of the facility and provide residents with broader educational opportunities.

Mayor Park Seungwon said, "Personally visiting sites closely connected to residents' daily lives and carefully checking even minor inconveniences is the starting point for creating changes that residents can feel." He added, "I will pursue site-centered municipal administration to ensure that the issues identified on the ground lead to tangible improvements."
