Life Redesign Education for Preparing a New Chapter in the Lives of Middle-aged Adults

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Suncheon City (Mayor Heo Seok) is conducting the ‘Post-Retirement let’s Academy’ education program to help the pre- and post-retirement middle-aged generation prepare for a happy second act in life.

This education program will be held from the 12th of next month until December 15th under the theme of ‘A Happy Future and Life Redesign for the Middle-aged Generation,’ covering three fields: humanities, arts, and experiences. It plans to conduct five sessions in each field with about 30 participants per session, featuring diverse content such as designing a happy second life, an arts talk concert, and a community program living together in nature.

Eligibility for application is anyone aged 50 to 64 residing in Suncheon City. Applications can be submitted on a first-come, first-served basis for one field per person via the ‘Suncheon City Life Second Act Support Center’ blog or by phone from the 28th until the 6th of next month.

A Suncheon City official stated, “We expect this education to help alleviate the anxiety about unprepared old age among the middle-aged generation before and after retirement, and to assist them in designing and challenging a new second act in life,” and requested active participation from the middle-aged generation.

Meanwhile, the Suncheon City Life Second Act Support Center operates various programs to support an active second act in life for the middle-aged, including life redesign education after 50, a learning school for middle-aged people, socially contributive rewarding job projects, and research activity support projects on common interests.
