The 5 core goals are: △365 Happy Daily Life, △360-Degree Balanced Development, △1 Million Companion Economy, △24-Hour Customized Welfare, and △Top-Tier Innovative Administration.

In detail, "365 Happy Daily Life" pursues year-round public facility openings and the expansion of community sports and urban resting spaces. "360-Degree Balanced Development" focuses on strengthening regional connectivity through the utilization of the Independence Hall Seogok District, development of the northern region, and the revitalization of Cheonan Station.

"1 Million Companion Economy" aims to broaden the horizons of the local economy by establishing an AI national industrial complex and supporting small business owners. "24-Hour Customized Welfare" strengthens tailored welfare services including Cheonan-style postpartum care and childcare. "Top-Tier Innovative Administration" encompasses AI-based administrative service improvements, enhancement of public officials' capabilities, and expanded cooperation within the Cheonan-Asan joint living zone.

Following the presentation of municipal directions, a citizen empathy talk was held under the theme of "Cheonan Desired by Citizens." Mayor Chang responded to pre-submitted opinions and on-site questions, discussing policy directions with residents. The event concluded with a "Light" performance, symbolizing how citizens' voices connect into light to illuminate the city.

Mayor Chang stated, "If my very first document signed upon taking office was '365,' the next four years must ensure a happy day for every single citizen. Together, we will build a city where citizens can physically feel changes in their everyday lives 365 days a year."
