Jangan-gu Official Name Confirmed for Gwanggyo Waterside Promenade as 'Gwanggyo Marutkil'

The name 'Gwanggyo Marutkil' has been finalized following a public naming contest for the 'Gwanggyo Reservoir Waterside Promenade (provisional name)', which opened on April 20 and has been beloved by citizens visiting Gwanggyo Mountain.

With strong public interest, beautiful names such as 'Gwanggyo Sujeong Path', 'Harmonious Promenade', 'Misty Firefly Path', 'Water-welcoming Path', and 'Silver-winged Path' were submitted.

The final 'Gwanggyo Marutkil' (submitted name: Gwanggyo Maru), determined through an online contest, carries the warmth and familiarity reminiscent of the traditional wooden veranda at grandmother's house, while symbolizing a space where families gather and communicate.

Jangan-gu plans to award selected traditional market gift certificates to the six winning entries and will install a plaque with the 'Gwanggyo Marutkil' name on the signage currently positioned at the promenade entrance by August.
