[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam held the 1st Geochang Youth Forum ‘Cheongdam’, ‘Accidentally Geochang, Accidentally Youth’ at the outdoor stage of the River Environment Education Center, attended by about 50 people including Geochang County Governor Goo In-mo, members of the Geochang County Council, and local youth.

The youth forum was organized to empathize with young people living in Geochang or whose hometown is Geochang about what goals and values they have, what difficulties they face, and what concerns they have.

Governor Goo shared his dreams and career during his youth and his life experiences with the Geochang youth, participated in the free discussion time, talked about his ‘concerns as a governor’ and ‘vision for Geochang,’ and showed great interest in youth policies by answering questions from the youth.

Youth participants in the forum said, “Through the youth forum, I was able to meet young people from various fields who have similar worries and difficulties as me, which gave me comfort and strength,” and expressed hope that programs where youth can gather will continue.

Meanwhile, starting with the youth forum, the county plans to hold youth events such as a youth network policy sharing workshop that expands youth-led planning and participation in the second half of the year, and a youth empathy meal, striving to make Geochang a happy place for youth to live.
