[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seon-sik] The Gwangyang City Library in Jeollanam-do is operating a 'Relay Celebrity Special Lecture' series as one of its new initiatives this year to cultivate civic consciousness and spread the reading culture in the local community by inviting well-known authors and professors.

The first lecture was held on the 22nd at the Jungma Library children's room and online under the theme "Wisdom to Overcome National Crises through History in the Post-COVID-19 Era."

The session was led by Choi Tae-sung, who gained popularity by appearing on various educational entertainment programs such as MBC's Infinite Challenge Cultural Heritage Special, KBS's History Journal That Day, and tvN's Somehow Adults, and is the author of "The Usefulness of History" and known as "Big Star Teacher."

Choi emphasized that history is a means to predict and prepare for the post-COVID-19 era, presenting solutions on how to prepare and live amid the rapid changes brought by COVID-19.

He also took ample time for Q&A with the attendees and responded thoughtfully to comments from citizens participating online, showing consideration for the audience until the very end of the lecture, earning great acclaim.

The Gwangyang City Library plans to hold three more relay celebrity special lectures in the first half of this year by inviting musician Yozoh, author Baek Se-hee, and Professor Park Ji-sun of Sookmyung Women's University.
