Shingongno stated, "Despite the difficult situation of having to run the county administration under an acting governor system for a long time, all public officials will do their utmost to work together with the acting governor of Shinangun to ensure that there is no neglect in improving the lives and welfare of residents, and to wisely overcome the period of vacancy in the governor's office."

In particular, the union emphasized, "Even in this crisis caused by the vacancy of the Shinangun governor, we will resolutely respond to any attempts to interfere in the executive branch’s exclusive authorities, such as personnel, budget, and contracts, as well as to any acts of abuse of power, external pressure, or solicitation that unfairly oppress or pressure the county executive branch and public officials."

Chairperson Choi Seongeun stated, "The majority of Shinangun public officials are quietly fulfilling their duties to safeguard the safety and well-being of residents," and added, "We ask for the continued cooperation, attention, and affection of the Shinangun residents."
