Gangnam-gu Helps Overcome 'Corona Blue' with YouTube Online Lectures

Starting with 'Gwak Jeong-eun's Warm Time,' Psychological Therapy for Middle-Aged and Older Adults in October and November... District Office Website and YouTube Broadcast

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gangnam-gu (District Mayor Jung Soon-gyun) is conducting an online program to help overcome 'corona blue' until the end of the year, starting with a lecture by writer and broadcaster Kwak Jung-eun on the 18th, in commemoration of Suicide Prevention Day week.

The district has consistently carried out suicide prevention campaigns in places with heavy foot traffic such as Samseong Station, but this year it planned a non-face-to-face lecture using YouTube that addresses the topic of 'depression' in a light and interesting way.

In particular, the program aired on the 18th, 'A Warm Time with Kwak Jung-eun, the Older Sister of the 2030 Generation,' is expected to be a comforting space for young women experiencing psychological conflicts.

This online program to overcome corona blue can be viewed by anyone on the district office website or the official Gangnam-gu Office YouTube channel.

Additionally, Gangnam-gu plans to provide psychological therapy for middle-aged and older adults through online broadcasts by inviting mental health specialists for the 'Lower Anger, Raise Joy' lecture program once each in October and November.

Yang Oh-seung, head of the Gangnam-gu Public Health Center, said, “Although these are difficult times for everyone, I hope residents will overcome corona blue and find comfort through this online program,” adding, “As a leader in the Ontact era, we will strive to build a psychological quarantine network through various non-face-to-face services.”
