Gangbuk-gu Premarital Class 'Shall We Prepare for Our Wedding?' Operation

Gangbuk-gu Healthy Family and Multicultural Family Support Center to Host Premarital Classes on June 27 and July 4... First-Come, First-Served Registration via Phone and Google Form

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gangbuk-gu (Mayor Park Kyum-soo) is conducting a premarital couple class program titled "Shall We Prepare for Our Marriage?" organized by the Gangbuk-gu Healthy Family and Multicultural Family Support Center (Director Eunju Han).

This program is operated as part of the "Seoul Family School" project, which aims to promote communication and empathy and foster a family-friendly culture by running various educational programs reflecting the changing family dynamics.

Any unmarried couple who are about to get married or interested in marriage and whose residence, workplace, or school is located in Seoul can participate.

The program will be held at the center over two weeks on June 27 and July 4. However, if the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) continues, the program may be conducted online or the schedule may change. Participants will have time to prepare for a healthy marriage through mutual understanding and explore ways to achieve a happy married life.

On June 27, the sessions will cover ▲ Understanding each other's differences using DISC (personality type test) ▲ Desirable communication methods for happy couple conversations, and on July 4, the topics will be ▲ The meaning of marriage and a checklist for marriage preparation ▲ Designing our marriage and rational financial management.

The number of participants is limited to 13 couples on a first-come, first-served basis. If the classes are replaced by online sessions, the number of participants may increase. Applications can be made by phone or through a Google application form, which can be accessed by scanning the QR code on the Gangbuk-gu Healthy Family and Multicultural Family Support Center website under ‘Program Guide’ → ‘Program List’.

Additionally, the district plans to hold a second premarital couple class in September following the sessions conducted in June and July.

Director Eunju Han said, “This program will be a time for participants about to start a new chapter to reflect on the meaning of marriage and check the requirements for true happiness,” adding, “We hope many people participate to prepare for a desirable married life.”
