[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-su] Gangjin-gun Jeonnam Music Creation Center is conducting the ‘Poetry Recitation Album Production Project with Local Residents.’

According to Gangjin-gun on the 1st, the poetry recitation album production is being promoted to introduce the works of the Si Literature School poets who sang about life and nature with fresh metaphors and imagery in beautiful Korean.

Participants will recite poems by representative poets who led the pure poetry movement centered on the poetry magazine ‘Si Literature’ in 1930, including Kim Young-rang, Kim Hyun-gu, Jeong Ji-yong, Park Yong-cheol, Shin Seok-jeong, Lee Ha-yoon, and Byeon Young-ro.

Participants will have the opportunity to record and keep their own recitations, and outstanding recordings will be selected through a review process and included in the edited album.

Applications for the poetry recitation album production project will be accepted until the 11th. Any Jeonnam resident interested in poetry recitation can participate.

Applications are accepted by phone reservation in advance, and since it is limited to the first 30 applicants, early reservation is necessary.

Im Seok, CEO of Gangjin-gun Culture and Tourism Foundation, said, “Gangjin-gun is a literary hometown where the poetic spirit of Young-rang lives and breathes. This poetry recitation album production project will be a great opportunity to inherit the spirit of Si Literature. We hope to provide various cultural contents for local residents using the recording facilities of Jeonnam Music Creation Center and greatly contribute to improving the cultural index.”
