The Hamanhacheon campaign, which involves walking 10,000 steps a day and writing 1,000 characters a day, is the easiest and most effective way to promote brain health. Since the beginning of the year, Asia Economy has been interviewing prominent figures practicing Hamanhacheon in various fields and introducing walking-friendly courses and writing-friendly content. The Hamanhacheon newsletter is published daily, and community services are also provided. On September 20, the ‘2023 Good Brain International Conference’ will be held to explore the latest trends and policy alternatives related to brain health.
