Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) will hold a 'Celebrity Invitation Health Lecture' at the Gwangjin-gu Office Auditorium on November 1st.

For this special lecture, Professor Jung Hee-won from the Geriatrics Department of Seoul Asan Medical Center, widely known for academic activities and lectures on elderly health, has been invited. Under the theme "You Can Also Age Slowly," participants will learn exercise methods to prevent geriatric syndromes such as falls, urinary incontinence, gait disorders, sarcopenia, and frailty, and to slow down the aging process.


The lecture will cover topics such as ▲Body to Overcome Aging - Mobility ▲Weapon to Turn Back the Clock - Mental Health ▲Health and Disease ▲Skills for Aging Wisely, providing content for a healthy and vibrant old age.


Participation is possible after registration, with the application period from October 23 to 27, and only one session can be applied for. Applications can be made through the Gwangjin-gu website, and in-person or phone registration is also available. For inquiries, please contact the Gwangjin-gu Public Health Center.



Kim Kyung-ho, Mayor of Gwangjin-gu, said, "We have prepared a special lecture on elderly health management for a healthy old age, and we hope many residents will participate," adding, "We will continue to take the lead in creating a healthy city that enjoys a vibrant life rather than simply living longer through various facilities and programs."
