After the ceremony, Yu wrote in the visitors' book that he would "remember the noble spirit of sacrifice shown by the patriots and war heroes," and added the 10th council's slogan — "By the Will of Residents, With the Strength of Seocho!" — reaffirming his commitment to governance centered on residents' livelihoods.
