Kim Dong-yeon: "Youth Anger Over School Violence Is Serious... Gyeonggi-do Will Build More Gisa Bridge"

Governor Kim Dong-yeon of Gyeonggi Province posted the following text and photo on his SNS on the 4th.

Kim Dong-yeon, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, recently expressed concern over the intense anger among youth regarding 'hakppok' (school violence) and promised that Gyeonggi Province will create a 'Opportunity Ladder' to provide more opportunities for young people.

Governor Kim wrote on his social media (SNS) on the 4th, "I promised to communicate with young people every month, and I am glad to keep that promise this time as well," adding, "Today, I attended the 5th inauguration ceremony of the 'Gyeonggi Youth Volunteer Group (Gyeongcheongbong)."

He continued, "It was truly heartening to see the vitality of young people united by the 'charm of volunteering,'" and added, "Volunteering definitely has an addictive quality, and I have also participated in the 'Love Jjajang Car' with my wife. Even if the start of volunteering is a simple sense of duty, it provides both self-development and a sense of fulfillment, and sometimes it gives hope for the future."

However, Governor Kim pointed out, "The recent anger among young people is serious," referring to "a public office candidate who deprived the victim's opportunities and vision for the sake of his son, a perpetrator of school violence."

He went on to say, "Seeing this incident, I once again realize the necessity of the 'Opportunity Ladder,'" emphasizing, "Gyeonggi Province will create an 'Opportunity Ladder' for more opportunities and build a society where not only 'elites' dominate, but where everyone can feel fulfillment and achievement through the work they want to do."
