[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyun-joo] The Korea Scout Association (President Kim Tae-seon, Black Yak Chairman) recommended Kim Yu-bitnara (26), Central Commissioner of the Korea Scout Association and Rover Scout, as the Korean representative candidate for the World Scout Youth Advisors at the 14th World Scout Youth Forum held online from August 18 to 23. In the vote to select six new World Youth Advisors, Kim Yu-bitnara achieved an overwhelming first place, becoming the only elected candidate from Asia.

In this election, which saw the fiercest competition with the highest number of candidates in history, 19 candidates from 172 countries worldwide ran, and 163 countries exercised their voting rights. This remarkable achievement is very encouraging for Korea, which will host the 2023 Saemangeum Jamboree.

The World Scout Youth Advisors actively participate in the World Scout Conference, play a key role in decision-making, and serve as central figures among global young leaders.

Kim Yu-bitnara, elected as a World Youth Advisor, has been promoting the 2023 Saemangeum World Scout Jamboree, hosted in Korea, by traveling around the world since her days at Korea University. In 2017, at the Azerbaijan General Assembly, the final stage of the Saemangeum Jamboree bid held during the Poland and Baekjung secular events, she successfully secured votes through her final presentation, leading to the successful bid.
