Seocho-gu Builds Integrated Interactive Online Exercise Education Platform for Untact Era

Non-face-to-face 'Seocho Smart Physical Education Class' Exercise Program Operation... Online Content Available for Anyone to Learn and Exercise via Seocho District Office YouTube Service

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seocho-gu District Office (Mayor Eunhee Jo) has established and is now fully operating a YouTube platform for exercise programs that enable real-time online classes, becoming the first autonomous district in Seoul to do so in response to the untact era trend caused by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic (Seocho-gu Office YouTube channel: Seocho Smart Life Sports Classroom).

The ‘Seocho Smart Life Sports Classroom’ is a new integrated platform created by combining the existing YouTube-operated ‘Seocho Smart Taekwondo Life’ and the new program ‘Seocho Smart Children’s Soccer Classroom’ content. It provides various home-based physical activity services for children in the local community.

The newly introduced ‘Seocho Smart Children’s Soccer Classroom’ offers real-time online classes for members recruited for the previously planned offline Seocho-gu soccer classroom, and later, recorded videos will be available on YouTube for all children to watch and follow along.

The filming takes place on a soccer field to provide a more vivid experience, with cameras following the exercise instructor to capture dynamic and realistic footage on screen. A chat service that allows Q&A is also provided, so any questions can be addressed immediately during the real-time classes.

The ‘Seocho Smart Taekwondo Life’ content will also continue to be offered. It presents a systematic step-by-step program to learn professional taekwondo moves and provides upgraded services such as taekwondo breaking demonstrations, self-defense training, and taekwondo gymnastics to offer a variety of engaging content.

Eunhee Jo, Mayor of Seocho-gu, said, “Due to the prolonged COVID-19 situation, inconveniences in daily life have increased, and we can no longer postpone starting physical activities. We are launching online classes first to satisfy children’s desire for exercise and to instill hope.”
