[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Dobong-gu (Mayor Dongjin Lee) will hold the "Corona Out, Online Hope Concert" delivering music to residents exhausted by COVID-19 until May 11.

This performance, aimed at conveying hopeful energy to residents weakened by COVID-19, will be held without an audience at the Dobong-gu Community Center auditorium and broadcast live in real-time via Dobong-gu Office's YouTube and Facebook.

The concert series begins on April 29 with the Dobong-gu Street Arts Group's "7080 Folk, Pop, Trot Performance," followed by "Beautiful Classics - Dobong Residents, Thank You for Your Hard Work" on May 6, "Humanities Concert - Talking about Dobong Figures" on May 7, "Music Talk Concert" on May 8, and concludes on May 11 with the Dobong-gu Philharmonic Orchestra's "Musical and Drama OST Performance."

In addition, the district operates an "Online Permanent Performance Venue" at the Village Theater (Hingomusin) until May 29 to provide local cultural artists, who have had fewer performance opportunities due to COVID-19, with both a stage and financial support. Performance videos can be viewed daily on the Dobong-gu website.

Along with this, the district is conducting the "Hope through Art (예술로(路) 희망을)" art campaign, starting with the Dobong-gu Philharmonic Orchestra and Dobong-gu Children's Choir. The performances are online concerts available from April 24 to May 30, every Thursday to Saturday at 3 PM, viewable on Dobong Cultural Magazine's YouTube channel and the Dobong-gu Office website.

The Dobong-gu Children's Choir's support video was produced by compiling videos filmed individually at each member's home. They selected the song "Balloon," which carries a hopeful message wishing for the past days together and the days to come, hoping to comfort residents and volunteers weary from COVID-19.

Mayor Dongjin Lee of Dobong-gu said, "I hope that the local arts, which have been depressed due to COVID-19, will overcome the crisis and stabilize as soon as possible. I also hope that the online concerts such as 'Corona Out, Hope Concert' and 'Hope through Art (예술로(路) 희망을)' will soothe the emotional fatigue of our exhausted residents with warm music, even if just a little."
