The Gyeongnam Uri-mal Gakkeumi will engage in various activities that encourage residents' participation, such as surveys on youth and public language usage, research on native Korean words, events commemorating King Sejong's birthday and Hangeul Day, and street promotions to raise awareness of the Korean language.

The event was simply conducted in the order of opening, greetings, Uri-mal Gakkeumi oath and appointment certificate presentation, Uri-mal Gakkeumi pledge, and commemorative photo.

Kim Min-guk, director of the Korean Language and Culture Center, said, "I hope that through the activities of this year's Gyeongnam Uri-mal Gakkeumi, a proper language culture will take root in the Gyeongnam region."
