[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Gimhae City in Gyeongnam has created a space called the Youth Hub (Gimhae Cheongnyeon Daom) for local young activists, featuring exhibitions, hands-on experiences, information exchange among youth, and cultural and artistic activities.

The city announced on the 21st that Gimhae Cheongnyeon Daom, completed in December last year at 365 Bunseong-ro with a total area of 365㎡ and two floors, will be fully operational starting in March.

The first floor of Gimhae Cheongnyeon Daom includes an experience room, creator room, hall, and stage, serving as an experimental space for cultural and artistic activities and creative work such as small performances, exhibitions, and small group meetings.

The second floor houses a book caf?, seminar room, shared kitchen, office, and counseling room, providing spaces for rest, personal counseling, expert lectures, information provision, and self-development.

Additionally, it operates as a social dining and open-air cinema venue to help alleviate loneliness among single-person households and foster various communities.

The Youth Hub is expected to become a pivotal facility for youth support projects by offering diverse and continuous programs and supporting activity spaces for young people.

Mayor Heo Seong-gon said, “Although we have just taken small steps, if youth entrepreneurship support and cultural activities continue through the Youth Hub, it will become another landmark in the old downtown area. Through this, we hope that second and third Youth Hubs will be established so that we can hear the laughter of young people in the city center. We ask for much interest and support.”
