[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Young-wook] Daegu City announced on the 15th that the '2020 Representative Youth Harmony Yard' will be held as a real-time LIVE broadcast in the form of a visible radio at the 2.28 Memorial Central Park on the 18th.

Organized by the Daegu Youth Activity Promotion Center, this year's first Youth Harmony Yard will be broadcast live in real-time on Facebook under the title 'Harmony Radio 2.28㎐', considering the situation of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

This event will proceed with an opening declaration, the 32nd Youth Awards ceremony, a corner for sharing personal COVID-19 prevention methods called 'Wise Prevention Life', stories titled 'I even tried this because of COVID-19!', and showing youth pride. In addition, six awardees, including Shim Soon-gyeong (female, dropout of Daegu Foreign Language High School), who received the honor of the 32nd Youth Award in early July, will be invited for certificate presentation and celebration.

In particular, this event will include various attempts in the non-face-to-face era, such as pre-application and selection of stories from youths who are wisely overcoming the COVID-19 situation, and giving gifticons through real-time quizzes during the live broadcast.

To ensure the safety of event attendees, thorough COVID-19 prevention measures will be implemented, including providing hand sanitizers, deploying volunteers to guide mask-wearing, minimizing the number of attendees inside the venue, installing zigzag seating to maintain a 2-meter distance, checking for fever and respiratory symptoms, and setting up separate entrances and exits for the venue.

Lee Seung-sang, head of the Youth Division of Daegu City, said, "I believe that youths, who should be meeting new friends and engaging in active activities as soon as school starts, have suffered more psychological and physical pain than anyone else due to COVID-19, staying at home and attending classes online. Although we cannot return to the pre-COVID situation at present, I hope they will wisely overcome this crisis through various attempts and challenges."

Meanwhile, starting with this opening ceremony, the Youth Harmony Yard will be held about 2 to 3 times a month until November at venues such as the 2.28 Memorial Central Park and Dongseong-ro outdoor stage, featuring various youth-led programs.
