Jung Moon-heon, Mayor of Jongno-gu, Visits Large Construction Sites in Pyeongchang-dong and Ogin-dong

On the morning of the 17th, Jung Moon-heon, Mayor of Jongno-gu, visited large construction sites in Pyeongchang-dong and Ogin-dong, areas vulnerable to flooding within the district.

This site inspection was conducted in response to the continuous rain damage occurring across the country. Jongno-gu had previously canceled the car-free street event scheduled for Daehangno on the 16th and operated a 24-hour Disaster Safety Countermeasures Headquarters to maintain emergency duty.

The district plans to convene an emergency countermeasure meeting this afternoon to devise additional measures aimed at minimizing casualties and property damage among residents.

Mayor Jung Moon-heon stated, “Although the rainfall in the metropolitan area has weakened, heavy rain continues nationwide. We will maintain full preparedness and make every effort to prevent damage to residents.”
