"In the second half of the eighth term of the popular election, we will push for major issues such as citizens' satisfaction, balanced development, and achievement in the direction of municipal administration," said Yeosu Mayor Chung Ki-myung at a press conference marking the second anniversary of his inauguration.

According to the city on the 27th, Yeosu Mayor Chung Ki-myung held a press conference in the conference room of the city hall to announce his achievements and future directions for municipal administration, including the "20s Core Performance" and the "100 Emphasis Project."

At the beginning of the press conference, Mayor Chung said, "I am Tobak, born and raised in Yeosu, and I have lived in Yeosu for more than 40 years, so I know the expectations of citizens that they will do well on their own," and added, "I am always taking care of the citizens' aspirations, promises I gave, and corrections to the extent that I have received the highest grade (SA) for two consecutive years in the 'National Basic Organization Heads' Evaluation of Promises."

▶"Preparation for Yeosu World Island Expo 2026" and "Full-fledged implementation of mid- to long-term comprehensive development plan for Yeo Soo-man's literary revival (Renaissance)"
Mayor Chung first cited these projects as achievements of the second year of the eighth popular election. "These are important projects that can be a historical inflection point for Yeosu to take a leap forward," he said. "We are preparing according to the step-by-step implementation plan (roadmap) without any neglect." He added, "In the future, we will spread the heat of island fairs nationwide and implement a comprehensive development plan for the Renaissance based on the results of the service to establish a foundation for sustainable urban growth such as the Women's Bay National Marine Ecological Park and the Longevity Bay Marine Health Management (wellness) Base."

▶ The islands within the jurisdiction are transformed with a large investment linked to the island fair... 'It's a completely clear sea.'
While the island development is underway with a large-scale investment in Yeosu's islands in connection with the island fair, Mayor Chung emphasized, "The area of Geomundo Island is developing as a gateway to K tourism in Korea by investing 47 billion won, and Nangdo Island and Sado Island, famous for their dinosaur fossil sites, are developing as eco-tourism resources by investing 17.3 billion won." He added, "The transportation convenience, which is the long-cherished desire of island residents, has also been improved, such as the 'Geumodo Maritime Bridge Construction Project' and the 'New Speed Line to Geomun Port'.

▶ Unprecedented 'Age of 7 trillion won in investment attraction'... 'Snow Road'
During the first two years of the eighth popular election, Chung signed investment agreements worth W6.7 trillion (6775) with 22 domestic and foreign companies and created more than 2,800 (2,804) jobs. This is an unprecedentedly remarkable achievement for a small city, not a metropolitan government. In addition, with the recent designation of Yeosu Myodo District as the "Special Zone for Opportunity Development," a hydrogen industry cooperation zone (cluster), an economic ripple effect worth W3.9 trillion can be expected over five years, creating more than W6,975 jobs, and W5.69 trillion.

▶After 26 years of integration, 'the extension of the annex of the main building has been confirmed'..."Communication administration has shone even more."
Recently, Yeosu City's plan to manage public property by expanding the annex of the main building was approved at the 237th city council. It was a valuable achievement in 26 years since the merger of the three major cities. "It was possible because we actively communicated with the political community amid respect and consideration," Mayor Chung said, "I would like to thank the two lawmakers and city council members for participating with great determination and consultation."

In addition, it has also actively developed tourism contents that will further shine the reputation of Yeosu Night Sea, such as Jangdo Art Forest and Namsan Park. In the second half of the 8th popular election, the government plans to establish a "2035 Yeosu City Tourism Comprehensive Development Plan" and make all-out efforts to establish an "International Exhibition and Convention Center" and "designate a complex district for the International Conference of the Republic of Korea."

▶ Prepare 'clues for creating a high-quality culture and arts city' such as the City Museum and Yeosu Cultural Foundation
Mayor Chung pointed out, "Although Yeosu is a famous cultural and tourism city nationwide, there is no city museum or art museum so far, so I was very thirsty for culture and art," and emphasized, "The city museum opened its first shovel in October last year, and the Yeosu Cultural Foundation, which pledged, will be established by July next year to enhance the dignity of Yeosu's culture and art."

▶ On Yeosu National Industrial Complex, 'co-prosperity and affection touch'
Mayor Chung said, "The industrial complex, which has served as a driving force for Yeosu's development, is suffering from the global recession and changes in industrial trends," adding, "We are doing our best to help the industrial complex overcome this difficulty together and become a low-carbon, eco-friendly, intelligent (smart) and green (green) industrial complex."
