Expansion of Funeral Halls
Introduction of Guest Room
Kyowon Life announced on the 30th that it has completed the remodeling of the 'Kyowon Yeoum Gangwon Funeral Hall' located in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province, and began operations on the 29th.
This remodeling project was carried out to address capacity limitations, as the total operating rate of funeral halls at Kyowon Yeoum Gangwon Funeral Hall has averaged over 90% since 2022.
The remodeling focused on expanding the number of funeral halls and improving the overall space. By utilizing previously unused areas, the number of funeral halls was increased from six to eight, and the entire layout was reorganized to allow for more comfortable and flexible funeral services. In particular, the two newly added funeral halls are designed as smaller spaces to accommodate the rising demand for family-centered, small-scale funerals. These two halls can also be combined to serve as a medium-sized funeral hall.
Additionally, a guest room was installed as an independent lounge for long-distance visitors and bereaved families, and various amenities such as showers, restrooms, heating and cooling systems, and bedding were provided.
A Kyowon Life representative stated, "We undertook this environmental improvement to resolve the inconvenience experienced by customers who have difficulty reserving funeral halls due to increasing funeral demand, and to provide a higher level of customer service." The representative added, "Going forward, we will continue to enhance all aspects of customer service, including food and beverage offerings and convenience facilities, as well as the space itself, to further elevate the dignity of funeral culture."
