In an age of increasing old population due to rapidly aging population, Yangcheon Gu operates a Travelling Leisure Program at the Senior Citizen Hall or Senior School connected with the Welfare Center and the customized learning program of ¡¸Longevity & Culture College¡¹ at 20 community centers in order for the aged to enjoy healthy pastimes.

Some good examples of integrating Private Participation type of system in the welfare field are the ¡¸Affiliation Project with Senior Citizen Hall¡¹ through which private organizations offer material & volunteering aid to the Senior Citizen Hall through affiliation & continual meeting, and the ¡¸Silver Welfare Card System¡¹ which gives discount of up to 30% to senior citizens over the age of 65 in 7 categories closely related to real life including restaurants, barber shops & beauty salons.
