[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] The Gyeongnam youth organization Again Start held a youth forum on the 26th at Annyeong Auto Camping Site under the theme "N Life Styles," focusing on various family forms.

The forum proceeded with a keynote lecture followed by discussions on diverse family types such as singlehood, DINK (Dual Income No Kids), and DINGPET (DINK families living with pets).

The forum featured a lecture by humanities instructor Kang Sharon on "A Humanistic Reflection on Changing Family Forms," and a lecture by counseling expert Lee Hyunjin on "Modern Families from the Perspective of a Counseling Specialist."

This forum was part of the youth club project supported by the Gyeongnam Youth Center Youth Onna, with manager Park Jeong-ui and officer Kim Jua attending the event.

The event was conducted with thorough quarantine measures and a minimal number of participants due to the novel coronavirus infection.

Kang Saerom, a youth organizer of the event, stated the purpose of the forum: "I wanted to ask and answer questions about families that are changing in various forms and members in modern society."

Youth participant Lee Yerin said, "Until now, I had thought only of conventional family members, but the forum gave me an opportunity to think about various family forms."

Meanwhile, the youth organization Again Start is working together on the career paths of Gyeongnam youth and expanding their social participation.
