Gwangju Dong-gu Academy Operated Online in a Non-Face-to-Face Format

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Dong-gu, Gwangju (Mayor Im Taek) announced that it will operate the first 'Dong-gu Academy' of the year in a non-face-to-face online format.

Since its opening in March 2007, the Dong-gu Academy, which was held on the second Friday of every month, has been completely suspended this year due to the spread of COVID-19.

This lecture, conducted through a talk between Ryu So-yeon, head of the Gwangju Infectious Disease Support Group, and professional MC Park Yo-han, not only explored COVID-19 countermeasures but also provided healing music performances for residents' mental and physical recovery.

The lecture video was pre-recorded to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and is currently available on Dong-gu's YouTube channel.

Im Taek, mayor of Dong-gu, said, "Due to the new changes brought by COVID-19, the Dong-gu Academy, which boasts a long history, is reaching out to residents in a new way. I hope that the Dong-gu Academy, delivered through non-face-to-face online channels, will be a time to offer warm comfort and smiles to residents going through more difficult times than ever before."
