Yongsan-gu (District Mayor Park Hee-young) will hold the 3rd Yongsan Youth Festival ‘Kkeol-kkeol-kkeol’ on the 16th, Youth Day, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Yongsan Youth Jium (17 Seobinggo-ro, Public Facility Building 3rd floor).

The festival name ‘Kkeol-kkeol-kkeol’ represents three meanings of ‘kkeol (geol)’: fun ‘kkeol (geol)’, happiness ‘kkeol (geol)’, and unforgettable ‘kkeol (geol)’. The laughter sound expresses the event’s fun and vitality.

This year, the venue is set up as a complex shopping mall. In nine spaces within Yongsan Youth Jium, visitors can enjoy ▲performances (5) and ▲experiences (13).

Performances will be held in the Community Hall where the opening ceremony takes place. The festival atmosphere will be created with ▲Sookmyung Women’s University acoustic guitar club performance ▲magic show ▲communication and empathy talk show ▲stand-up comedy ▲Ganeung-dong band performance.

Experiences include four reservation-based activities: ▲personal color diagnosis ▲laser shooting ▲upcycling keyring making ▲calligraphy allowance envelope making, and nine on-the-spot participations: ▲tarot ▲caricature ▲nail art ▲body composition analysis ▲4-cut photo booth ▲wish guestbook, totaling 13 activities.

Reservations for experiences can be made by scanning the QR code on the poster or applying on the website. However, personal color diagnosis and laser shooting were fully booked within one day of opening applications.

A district official stated, “Due to the high popularity of personal color diagnosis, we urgently added one booth for first-come, first-served participation on the day.”

Additionally, a youth policy information booth will provide information, and a flea market for young entrepreneurs will be set up to help generate income.

This festival was planned and promoted by a planning team of youths interested in youth activities in the region. The team held four meetings since July to plan the operation direction, program composition, and opening ceremony proceedings.

Park Hee-young, Mayor of Yongsan-gu, said, “The festival is meaningful as it is prepared and participated in by youths,” and added, “The district will support youths to freely dream and challenge themselves through practical youth policies.”
