[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] The National Mokpo University (President Park Min-seo) Social Customized Industry-Academic Cooperation Leading University Development Project (hereinafter referred to as the LINC＋ Project, Director Lee Sang-chan) announced on the 5th that the judging for the ‘Gachiha-se UCC Contest’ for the social economy in the Jeonnam region was held at 2 p.m. on the 4th in the LINC+ Project office.

The ‘Gachiha-se UCC Contest’ for the social economy in the Jeonnam region is a project promoted to rediscover the value of the social economy (social enterprises, village enterprises, social cooperatives, self-support enterprises) through the creative ideas of university students in the Jeonnam region and to contribute to revitalizing the local industry by developing effective promotional content.

The contest was hosted by Jeollanam-do and National Mokpo University, and organized by the Jeonnam Social Economy Integrated Support Center and Mokpo University LINC＋ Project. A total of 22 videos were submitted for this UCC contest, and the judging criteria were set based on video composition and social value.

The awards will be given as follows: one grand prize team with a prize of 1 million won, two excellence award teams each with 500,000 won, two merit award teams with cultural gift certificates worth 300,000 won as additional prizes, and five encouragement award teams with cultural gift certificates worth 200,000 won each.

Lee Sang-chan, Director of the Mokpo University LINC＋ Project, said, “Cooperation between universities and the social economy and industry-academic cooperation in the Jeonnam region is essential. I hope this contest served as an opportunity for students to realize the excellence of local companies and to enhance their value through UCC production.” He added, “We will refer to the new business promotion through exchanges between companies and students at the upcoming results presentation.”

The award-winning works selected through the UCC contest judging will first be exhibited at the Gachiha-se Hanmadang exhibition this month for internal and external feedback, followed by the Gachiha-se UCC results presentation next month. The submitted works will be broadcast on the Jeonnam Social Economy Integrated Support Center’s YouTube channel.
