Yesan County

What Yesan County does

Yesan County (예산군청) is a local government administrative entity (지방자치단체) under Chungcheongnam-do Province in South Korea, serving the residents of Yesan-gun across 1 eup and 13 myeon (14 total administrative sub-units). The county provides comprehensive public services including civil affairs, welfare, culture and tourism, disaster safety, environmental conservation, agricultural support, and urban planning. Its core products are digital service platforms: an integrated reservation system (통합예약시스템) for public facilities, a disaster safety portal (재난안전포털) for emergency alerts, an online large-waste disposal application (대형폐기물 온라인신청), and the Yesan 1100th Anniversary Memorial Hall facility management system. Specialized physical assets include the Health Center, Agricultural Technology Center, Public Facilities Business Office, Tourism Facilities Office, the 1100th Anniversary Memorial Hall (with swimming pool, fitness center, and multi-purpose hall), and the Yesan Stork Park (an ecological park dedicated to Oriental White Stork conservation and restoration).

The county's business model is a government budget model rather than commercial revenue. Funding is sourced from annual government allocations, local taxation, and select cost-recovery user fees (swimming pool subscriptions, large waste disposal sticker fees by category, distance-based fares for mobility-impaired transportation services at 1,000 KRW base fare plus 130 KRW/km). Go-to-market is via 14 eup/myeon administrative centers, the main county office, online digital platforms, and marketing channels including an official website (yesan.go.kr), Instagram, Naver Blog, and YouTube. The customer base segments into general residents, children/youth, senior citizens, the agricultural sector, and local SMEs. Notable strategic positioning includes international crane conservation cooperation with Japan (with Yesan crane eggs successfully hatched in Japan) and the 2025-2026 commemoration of Yesan's 1,100-year history as part of the 'Visit South Chungcheong and Yesan' tourism campaign. Management leadership includes Administrative Welfare Department Director Jang Gi-hyuk and Personal Information Protection Manager Na Yeon-seok within the Autonomous Administration Division.
