The county plans to conduct a second recruitment through its website in April to provide additional support.

A Goheung-gun official stated, "We will do our best to make Goheung a place where young people return by creating customized local jobs through support projects such as young startup challenge projects, young successors for family businesses, Jeonnam employment and startup youth support, Jeonnam young startup follow-up support programs, village and social enterprise cultivation, and the Young Tomorrow and Village projects."
