Governor Kim Moon-soo's Inauguration Held in Uijeongbu

Kim Moon-soo, governor of Gyeonggi Province for the fifth popularly elected term, will hold his inauguration ceremony on the 1st and begin full-fledged provincial administration.

Governor Kim's inauguration ceremony will be held at 10:30 a.m. under the Ganeung Station overpass in Uijeongbu City, with approximately 200 attendees including beneficiaries of the Infinite Care program, residents of Hansen village, North Korean defectors, persons with disabilities, traditional market merchants, and taxi drivers.

Without a pre-ceremony event, Governor Kim will complete official inauguration proceedings including the national ritual, oath of office, and inaugural address. His first schedule as governor of the fifth term will begin at 11:30 a.m., when he will participate in volunteer work at the 119 One-Pot Rice Free Meal Center located at Ganeung Station in Uijeongbu, providing free meals.

Governor Kim is known to reveal five major people-centered administrative innovation measures, a key policy focus of the fifth term, through his inaugural address.

The people-centered administrative innovation measures include ▲365·24 Infinite Service Administration ▲On-site Administration ▲Common People-Focused Administration ▲Swift-Speed Administration ▲Integrated Administration.

A provincial official stated, "Holding the inauguration ceremony at a subway station where ordinary citizens can participate, rather than at a large auditorium or hotel, symbolizes the future of Gyeonggi Province in the fifth term." The official added, "Governor Kim's experience of field-focused campaigning through homestays over 24 days and 25 nights signals his commitment to future site-centered and resident-tailored administration."

Governor Kim plans to present development measures for the underdeveloped northern regions of Gyeonggi Province through his inaugural address, and also to propose groundbreaking alternatives for Gwacheon City and nearby areas, which are inevitably affected by government office relocations following the confirmation of Sejong City's original plan.

Meanwhile, prior to the inauguration ceremony, Governor Kim will pay respects at the Memorial Tower located in Majeon-dong, Yangju City at 10 a.m., and will travel by subway to the inauguration venue while engaging in conversation with provincial residents.
