This initiative was organized to create a pleasant living environment and to raise residents' awareness of environmental protection.

The cleanup focused on Minrakcheon, where heavy rainfall had caused an accumulation of trash and debris, and also took place in Pureun Madang Neighborhood Park and the commercial district of Minrak 2 District. In particular, the significance of the event was enhanced by running an "Eco-friendly Consumption Practice Campaign" in connection with the "Walkable City" initiative.

After the environmental cleanup, the Tongjang Association held its monthly meeting to share local issues and discuss future directions for their activities.

The Songsan 3-dong Tongjang Association has been consistently participating in the "Clean Environment 2025, By Our Hands" project, which began in April this year, and plans to continue ongoing cleanup activities in conjunction with the city's "Happy Holssi Project."

Choi Sanho, Head of the Autonomous Civil Affairs Division, said, "I would like to thank the members of the Tongjang Association who participated voluntarily from early in the morning," and added, "We will continue to actively support ongoing efforts to keep our community clean."
