[Asia Economy Reporter Seolgina Jo] The Ministry of Science and ICT announced on the 4th that it will hold the 'National Digital New Deal Content Contest' to widely inform the public about the changes brought by the Digital New Deal on the first anniversary of the Korean New Deal.


This contest, themed 'Digital New Deal Changing My Life,' aims for the public to directly create content related to our changing daily lives and the future outlook due to the Digital New Deal, sharing the changes together.


Anyone interested in the Digital New Deal (individuals or teams of up to 4 people) can freely participate in the contest. Entries are accepted in three categories: videos (within 60 seconds), webtoons (within 10 panels), and posters. However, the poster category is limited to elementary, middle, and high school students only.


The submission period is from July 5 to August 13. Participants can submit their works online through the Digital New Deal Content Contest website. For paper poster submissions excluding computer graphics, a scanned copy (color, PDF file) must be submitted first, followed by the original via registered mail.


The Ministry of Science and ICT plans to select 13 outstanding contents through judging around mid-August. Awards include the Minister of Science and ICT Award (Grand Prize, 1 work), awards from related Digital New Deal organizations, and a total prize money of 10.4 million KRW.


Selected outstanding works will be used as online and offline promotional materials by the Ministry of Science and ICT and related organizations to enhance public awareness of the Digital New Deal in the future.



Park Yoon-kyu, Director of the Information and Communication Policy Office at the Ministry of Science and ICT, said, “I hope this contest, held on the first anniversary of the Korean New Deal in July, will be an opportunity for all citizens to feel the Digital New Deal approaching their daily lives,” and “I expect many citizens with creative ideas to participate actively, making this a chance to share the changes over the past year of the Digital New Deal.”
