[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Park Chan-hyeok] Osan City has unveiled a musical fountain under construction at Serang Reservoir to the public for the first time.
The city held a demonstration ceremony for the musical fountain at Serang Reservoir on the 2nd, inspecting the overall facilities ahead of full-scale operation while showcasing the new waterfront space to citizens.
The musical fountain project, which commenced in February this year, is set to be completed by the end of this month. It is a key facility designed to establish Serang Reservoir as a signature nighttime landscape destination within the city.
The musical fountain has been constructed with a length of 57 meters and width of 8 meters. It features a centerpiece geyser reaching heights of up to 100 meters, combined with diverse fountain displays synchronized to music and LED lighting effects in a complex water landscape facility. The city plans to maximize utilization beyond simple scenery by creating a space where citizens can linger and enjoy themselves.
During the demonstration ceremony attended by local residents and officials, fountains changing in rhythm with music and vibrant lighting drew the attention of visitors. Particularly after dusk, scenes of light and water blending together previewed the new nighttime landscape of Serang Reservoir.
The construction of this musical fountain, connected with the existing Serang Reservoir walking path, is expected to create synergistic effects. The waterfront space, which had faced some disconnected sections and inconveniences for nighttime use, will expand into a space enjoyable both day and night through the expansion of landscape facilities.
Additionally, Serang Reservoir is located at a point connecting nearby tourist resources such as Doksan Fortress, Semadae Site, and the Osaek Loop Trail, and is expected to serve as a hub linking regional tourism flows. The city plans to enhance the appeal of the waterfront space centered on the musical fountain and simultaneously strengthen citizen leisure spaces and tourism functions.
A city official stated, "The Serang Reservoir musical fountain is a facility designed to allow citizens to experience a space where nature and culture blend in their daily lives," and added, "Through stable operation, we will manage it to become a relaxing urban space that anyone can easily visit."
