[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, attended the 'Youth Hideout Opening Ceremony' held at 5 p.m. on the 15th on the 3rd floor of the Sanggye 3.4-dong Community Center in Nowon-gu.

The Youth Hideout was established to provide a resting space where young people can feel mental stability from stress related to studies and career paths by utilizing idle spaces in the area, allowing youth to operate and plan play and cultural spaces on their own.

The Youth Hideout, located on the 3rd floor of the Sanggye 3.4-dong Community Center (895 Deokneung-ro, Nowon-gu), which opened that day, covers an area of 110.97㎡ and is equipped with creative activity spaces, kitchen space, resting areas, and a terrace.

The opening ceremony was attended by about 80 people, including Mayor Oh Seung-rok, district council members, officials from local youth facilities, and youth. The event proceeded with a congratulatory performance by a youth band, introduction of guests, a report on the progress of the Youth Hideout establishment, a greeting from the mayor, a key handover performance, and a tour of the facility.

The district was selected for three sites (50 million KRW per site) in the city’s Youth Hideout public contest project, and a total of three sites will hold opening ceremonies this month. Following the opening at Sanggye 3.4-dong, ceremonies will be held at the Sangsang Irum Center at 5 p.m. on the 17th and at the Nowon Child Welfare Center at 5 p.m. on the 28th.

Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, said, “Congratulations on the opening of the Youth Hideout where young people can showcase their talents,” and added, “We will spare no support for youth who are the future leaders of society.”
