The newly opened multipurpose cultural center was built to expand the limited welfare and convenience facilities in the industrial complex and improve employees' daily convenience and quality of life. A total of 3.987 billion won was invested in the project. The center has a gross floor area of 942.22 square meters and two floors above ground.


The first floor houses a restaurant, a workwear laundry and offices, while the second floor has a fitness room, a multipurpose lecture room and meeting rooms.


The workwear laundry, in particular, will be operated by the Jeonnam Mokpo Regional Self-Sufficiency Center under contract. It is expected to ease the laundry burden on industrial complex employees and help create self-sufficiency jobs in the region.


The fitness room and multipurpose lecture room will also serve as spaces for employees to manage their health and enjoy leisure activities, as well as for education and communication.


Mokpo City expects the opening of the multipurpose cultural center to help address the shortage of welfare facilities in the industrial complex and improve employees' living conditions and job satisfaction.



Mokpo Mayor Kang Seonghwi said, "I hope the multipurpose cultural center will be a comfortable place for industrial complex employees to rest and recharge, as well as an open space where they can communicate and interact with one another. We will continue working to improve welfare and working conditions in ways that employees can feel."
