On the 14th, the Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education announced that it conducted the '2023 Visiting Smoking Prevention and Health Promotion Education' at the Jangheung Jeonnam Student Sports Culture Festival site.

This education was planned as a visiting program to prevent smoking, as the age at which students come into contact with tobacco is getting younger, and smoking rates and e-cigarette usage rates are increasing, threatening students' health.
