POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team Launches YouTube Channel for Untact Talent Donation

[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team is officially launching their official YouTube channel, ‘PotakPotak’.

Due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, the table tennis talent-sharing programs that the POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team had been conducting with the local community were suspended. In response, they are shifting to one-point lessons using YouTube to promote untact communication.

Before opening the YouTube channel, POSCO Energy held an event for employees to submit name suggestions for the women's table tennis team’s official YouTube channel. The final selected name, ‘PotakPotak,’ is an abbreviation of POSCO Energy Table Tennis Team and also expresses the sound made by the table tennis ball moving during a match.

The POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team YouTube channel plans to operate with distinctiveness from other table tennis channels. It will provide professional lessons introduced by active players, covering everything from beginner to advanced techniques, while adding entertainment elements to offer viewers both information and fun.

In fact, the first episode released introduces each player of the POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team, showcasing their daily lives outside the court through selfies taken by the players themselves, which cannot be seen during matches.

Jung Chang-sik, head of the POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team, said, “The POSCO Energy Women's Table Tennis Team has actively engaged in talent donation activities with the local community to practice POSCO Group’s corporate citizenship management philosophy. Although face-to-face talent donation has become difficult due to COVID-19, we will actively promote untact talent donation using YouTube.”

POSCO Energy is considering ways to give back to society if revenue such as advertising is generated through the continuous operation of the YouTube channel in the future.
