[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] KT announced on the 11th that it will recruit 'Y Futurists' who will be active this year until the 7th of next month. Y Futurists is KT Group's university student marketing supporter program that started in 2003 as the first generation of 'Mobile Futurists' and is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Over the past 19 years, about 4,720 university students have participated in Y Futurist activities.

Y Futurists are open to any enrolled or on-leave students in their 3rd to 6th semester at four-year universities in Korea. This year, a total of 70 Y Futurists will be newly selected through document screening and non-face-to-face interviews.
