Gwangyang Yonggang Library Successfully Hosts Family-Friendly Special Lecture

Professor Choi Kwanghyun's Psychological Lecture on Healing Emotional Wounds Receives Great Response

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seonsik] Jeonnam Gwangyang Yonggang Library announced that on the 27th, a lecture was held by inviting Professor Choi Gwanghyun, which focused on recognizing and learning how to heal inner wounds received from family, and it concluded with positive responses from citizens.

This lecture, themed on the book "The Two Faces of Family," was prepared to empathize with wounds received from family and to help facilitate communication within families. Considering the COVID-19 social distancing situation, it was held as a non-face-to-face program via ZOOM, with about 70 citizens participating online.

Professor Choi Gwanghyun, who led the session, has authored numerous psychology books including "The Two Faces of Family," "Discovery of Family," and "Psychology of Relationships for Those Struggling with People." He is also active as an expert in the field of family psychological counseling, appearing on the EBS class broadcast to help restore conflicts within families.

In the lecture, Professor Choi explained, "Most marital conflicts are not just problems of the current situation but arise from wounds received from past family experiences," adding, "If these wounds are not healed, they can be passed down to children, so it is important to recognize and heal these wounds." He also presented communication methods for overcoming family trauma.

The lecture included a communication session where students and the instructor used real-time video conferencing to ask and answer questions, increasing satisfaction with the lecture.

One participant said, "Through the real-time lecture, I discovered wounds inherited from my and my husband's childhood families, and understanding how to communicate between spouses and family was very helpful."

From March to October, Yonggang Library operated four family-friendly special lectures on topics such as child sex education, adolescent psychology, Havruta economy, and healing emotional wounds. They plan to continue lectures related to parent education and family communication next year as well.

Ko Geunseong, Director of Library Operations, said, "We thank many citizens for participating in the family-friendly special lectures," and added, "Since the response to this lecture was great, we will continue to prepare various family programs on topics such as family communication and psychological healing."
