Gangwon is loved by not only Gangwon residents but also all Koreans.

We live in a free country where people can move freely.
With the development of mobility technology, Gangwon has been the home of Koreans.

The region is now a special autonomic province. It means becoming "Gangwon State."
From now on, Gangwon State must take a new path of self-reliance and growth on its own.
This new decentralization path will be an essential milestone in the future for Korea to achieve regional liberalization and democratization.

Gangwon Institute serves as a think tank, creating policies that promote the growth and prosperity of Gangwon.
Gangwon Institute will become a think tank that actively prepares for the Gangwon era of special autonomy which comes suddenly and quietly. This growth is expected to have a positive impact on the entire nation.
I hope we can communicate more freely about Gangwon policies.
