Bucheon City announced on the 10th that it held the "2026 Bucheon City Residents’ Autonomy Program Contest" at the City Hall Eoulmadang. The event was designed for participants of community center programs to share their activity achievements and enjoy each other's performances.

A total of 8 cultural program teams from community centers—having advanced through preliminary rounds held in the Wonmi, Sosa, and Ojeong districts—participated in the competition, demonstrating their skills in various fields such as acoustic guitar, haegeum (traditional Korean string instrument), traditional Korean dance, and line dancing.

As a result of the competition, the Grand Prize (Choi-woo-su-sang) was awarded to the "Yeokgok Line Queen" team from Yeokgok 2-dong. The Excellence Prizes (Woo-su-sang) went to two teams: the "Under Girls" from Wonjong 1-dong and "Bravo Line" from Sang-dong. Additionally, Encouragement Prizes (Jang-ryeo-sang) were awarded to five teams: the "Dodang Eoul Art Troupe" from Dodang-dong, "Ttobuk Nanta" from Sinheung-dong, "Sunshine Line Dance" from Beombak-dong, "Sori Moeum" from Songnae 2-dong, and the "Haegeum Class" from Sang 3-dong.

The grand prize-winning Yeokgok Line Queen team from Yeokgok 2-dong will represent Bucheon City at the 2027 Gyeonggi Province Residents’ Autonomy Cultural Contest, where they will compete against representative teams from other cities and counties across the province.
