Professor Jeong is a literature PhD known for comforting words that embrace the hearts of people struggling with numerous life challenges, having appeared on programs such as 'The Form of Form' and 'Different Class.'

Meanwhile, the Seocho-gu Lifelong Learning Center, opened in July 2017 at Bangbae Open Culture Center near Naebang Station, offers various programs such as self-development, culture and arts, humanities, and foreign languages to residents.

In particular, the professional docent training course and character education training course provide education to local infants, young children, and elementary, middle, and high school students after training, operating so that learning is linked to employment.

Also, since April of this year, the 'Seocho Peace Project' has been underway to soothe exhausted and anxious minds due to strong social distancing measures related to COVID-19.

The Seocho Peace Project selects popular lectures from Seocho-gu Lifelong Learning Center and Father Center programs and provides them as online lectures to local residents, aiming to offer some peace of mind and comfort in life.

Seocho-gu Mayor Eunhee Cho said, “Through lifelong learning, we will strive to create a lifelong learning city Seocho where all residents, from young children to adults, can gain healing in the era of COVID blues, learn together anytime and anywhere, share joyfully, and live a happy life.”
