This contest, conducted nationwide to raise awareness and build consensus on sustainable development, lasted about a month and received a total of 60 entries including videos, comics, and posters.

The grand prize in the comics and posters category went to "Son Chang-woo: Sustainable Development Bingo," which amusingly expressed small daily practices through a bingo game.
