Jeju Fire Department to Recruit 'Korea 119 Youth Corps' Until Next Month 6

[Jeju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Jeongpil] Jeju Fire Station (Chief Ko Jae-woo) announced on the 18th that it will recruit members for the 'Korea 119 Youth Corps' until the 6th of next month.

The recruitment targets are students from kindergartens, elementary, middle, and high schools within the jurisdiction, and the number of members is about 30 to 50 per class or club.

The 'Korea 119 Youth Corps' was founded as the Children's Fire Brigade in 1963 and was renamed the Korea 119 Youth Corps following the revision of the Fire Services Basic Act and its designation as a public interest corporation in 2021.

The Korea 119 Youth Corps operates with the goal of fostering healthy children and youth who lead the next generation of safety culture and instill a safety culture.

Although the activities of the members were somewhat restricted last year due to COVID-19, this year, hoping for an improvement in the COVID-19 situation, they are recruiting youth corps members who will actively participate in 2022.

Students who join the youth corps will participate in various programs such as visiting fire safety education, the 119 Fire Song Contest, summer vacation camps, Jeju Safety Experience Center activities, and the Fire Safety Children's Poster Contest.

Since the Korea 119 Youth Corps is an organization where children can develop safety awareness and proper safety habits from an early age through various experiences and activities, schools or organizations wishing to join can contact the Jeju Fire Station Prevention and Safety Division for detailed guidance.
