[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] The 'Kkum Dream Festival' for out-of-school youth nationwide will be held online on November 20.

Hosted by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and organized by the Korea Youth Counseling and Welfare Institute, this festival was prepared to provide opportunities for participation and communication to out-of-school youth who had to spend most of their time at home due to restrictions on outdoor activities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The online Kkum Dream Festival will be broadcast live through the Korea Youth Counseling and Welfare Institute's YouTube channel, and youth who wish to participate can apply through the nationwide Out-of-School Youth Support Centers.

This program consists of contests in various fields, concerts, and quiz shows. Among the submissions for the contests, finalists will be selected through writer evaluations and online voting, and the finalists will be introduced live on YouTube on the day of the event. The contest categories include 'Bang-guseok Artist,' expressing daily life through photos, videos, and drawings; 'HIP Star Competition,' showcasing hidden talents; and 'Video Essay: I am a Teenage PD,' sharing tips necessary for living as an out-of-school youth. Works can be submitted via email by the 5th of next month.

The communication concert will invite out-of-school youth YouTubers, and there will be a segment where instructors provide counseling to youth recruited through pre-registration. The real-time online quiz show will feature nonsense and general knowledge surprise quizzes, with prizes such as chicken gift certificates and convenience store gift cards awarded to participating youth.
