[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Doo-yeol] The Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education will conduct the "Our Kids Cyberbullying Prevention Video Challenge (#UriSaiChallenge)" from the 16th to June 17th to prevent cyberbullying.


The video challenge was created as part of prevention activities in response to the shift in school violence from "physical violence" to "cyberbullying," which can occur anytime and anywhere, requiring continuous attention and education.


To make the challenge more approachable for students, a collaboration with local musicians produced a hip-hop style track incorporating rap that reflects recent trends, with lyrics addressing issues such as cyber exclusion like KakaoTalk jail and verbal abuse often dismissed as mere pranks.


A stylish choreography matching the music and lyrics was self-produced, featuring nine middle and high school students from the district who aspire to enter arts and physical education fields appearing in the dance video.


Student Kang Na-young, who participated in the video production, said, "I am very happy to have the opportunity to fully demonstrate the skills I have honed so far, but I also felt a great sense of responsibility knowing it will be uploaded on television and YouTube."


The filming locations included the meeting space, experience space, and exploration space of the Ulsan Mathematics Culture Center, as well as Yaksu Elementary School, creating diverse and dynamic scenes.


The video was filmed at institutions within Ulsan, which also helped promote local organizations through the video.


Anyone can participate in the challenge via Instagram Reels. To participate, follow the dance video distributed on YouTube and upload a self-recorded dance video on Instagram with the hashtag "#UriSaiChallenge."


The top six teams (or individuals) with the highest views among the submitted videos will receive online gift certificates.

An education office official said, "We hope hurtful words in the cyber world will stop, as expressed in the challenge song lyrics, and that many students and youth will participate to raise awareness about communication culture in cyberspace."
