The exhibition will be displayed in the hallway gallery of the Ministry of Education's Art Empathy Space until November.

'Art Empathy Space Ieum' is a space where the educational community, including students and teachers, collectively participate in exhibiting artworks to communicate and empathize with the educational field through art. Students express their dreams through various artistic activities, while the Office of Education and the Ministry of Education provide opportunities to engage with students' imaginations through art, fostering deeper empathy and communication within the educational environment.

Through this exhibition, the Office of Education aims for students to grow into future talents with artistic sensitivity and harmonious character, while art teachers incorporate artistic expertise and educational value into their creative activities within the educational field.

Lee Ju-ho, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education, said, "I am grateful to the students and teachers of the Jeonbuk Office of Education who helped create this meaningful exhibition space with their precious works," adding, "The Ministry of Education will also strive to help students grow into future talents who actively lead their lives by nurturing their talents and aptitudes."

Superintendent Seo Geo-seok said, "I send strong encouragement and applause to the students and art teachers who participated in the 'Art Empathy Space Ieum' exhibition despite their busy school lives," and added, "The closer one lives to art, the more emotionally stable and warm one will become."
