On the morning of February 17, around 11 a.m., the area surrounding the market brightened with activity despite the lingering winter chill. A total of 280 members of ASEZ STAR (the Church of God Student Volunteer Group) from the Southwest Incheon Region, gathered during their school break to carry out a large-scale cleanup. Some participants even traveled for about an hour and a half by car to take part in the activity.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full full-width\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3836\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_3.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_3-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_3-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_3-750x500.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ganghwa Pungmul Market is not only a popular tourist destination but also a busy transit area due to a nearby bus terminal, making proper environmental management essential for public hygiene and the area\u2019s image. At around 11 a.m., the volunteers\u2014well prepared with winter gear\u2014put on gloves, picked up tongs and trash bags, and began their work. Divided into four teams, they started from the South Gate of Ganghwa Fortress and made their way around the market, carefully collecting litter from bushes and street corners. Working in close coordination, one volunteer would reach into dense shrubs to retrieve trash while another received it and placed it into a bag.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"3832\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_5-e1757990239478.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3832\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"3835\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_2-e1757990249722.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3835\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1600\" data-id=\"3833\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/kr_incheon_ganghwa_pungmul_market_cleaning_1-e1757919233616.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3833\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some passersby praised the volunteers for their efforts, and a few even took candy from their bags to share as a gesture of appreciation.
