This budget represents an increase of 65.4 billion won (8.5%) compared to the original budget, making it the largest in the county's fiscal history.

Through the expansion of cultural and sports infrastructure, strengthening of the tourism industry foundation, and improvement of the living environment, the county aims to achieve sustainable growth and enhance the quality of life for its residents.

County Governor Kim Cheolwoo stated, "This supplementary budget is a significant turning point, as it is the first time since the founding of the county that we have surpassed 800 billion won. We will do our utmost to ensure prompt and responsible execution so that these changes can be tangibly felt in the daily lives of our residents."
