The photo subject is an approximately 840-meter section of the lower bicycle path at the entrance to the Sihwa Seawall, across from the Oido Museum. Participants may freely capture scenes such as the sea and solar power installations together, or people cycling past the installations. Each entrant may submit one original photo via the QR code on the contest poster.

The city will select five winning entries based on relevance to the theme, quality, originality, and promotional value. The first-place winner will receive a wireless keyboard worth 150,000 won, and the second-place winner will receive wireless earbuds worth 100,000 won. Three third-place winners will each receive Siheung City Kkum Sanghoe goods worth 40,000 won. The winning entries will be announced on the Siheung City website on December 18 and may be used in Siheung RE100 promotional materials.

A “Spread the Word” event will also be held. Participants can take a photo of the contest banner and post it on Instagram or a Naver Cafe or blog. Three participants who submit their post’s URL via the QR code will be selected by lottery to receive a tumbler worth 20,000 won.

“I hope this contest will capture the appeal of design-focused solar power through the diverse perspectives of residents and visitors, and help widely promote it alongside the beautiful scenery of the Sihwa Seawall,” said Hong Seongrim, director of Siheung City’s Environment Bureau.
