[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cho Hyung-joo] Jeong Seong-hong, former head of the Gwangju branch of the Korean Teachers and Education Workers Union (Jeon-gyo-jo), who is preparing to run for Gwangju Superintendent of Education in the June 1 local elections, will hold a book launch event on the 11th.

The book launch event, held at the Dodam Hall of Gwangju Arts High School from 7 p.m., will introduce the book Drawing Gwangju Education that Cultivates Life and will be conducted in the form of a book concert where education stakeholders will discuss the direction of Gwangju education together.

The book Drawing Gwangju Education that Cultivates Life, published by Jeong Seong-hong, a prospective candidate, vividly captures the concerns and experiences felt during his 36 years as a teacher in the field of education. It diagnoses the current issues of Gwangju education, proposes alternatives, and includes a bold methodology for transitioning toward future education.

Jeong Seong-hong said, "The repeated COVID-19 pandemic over the past two years has widened the educational gap, and education utilizing artificial intelligence and digital platforms has become a pressing task of the era. The launch of the National Education Commission, the introduction of the high school credit system, and the application of the 2025 revised curriculum are also preparing for major transformations in national education."

He added, "What Gwangju education needs most right now is someone who understands elementary, middle, and high school education better than anyone else. Having worked as a teacher for 36 years, I am an education expert who knows the field well. The big picture of Gwangju education that I have thought about and planned throughout my life as a teacher is contained in Drawing Gwangju Education that Cultivates Life."
