"Put All Your Worries Down" ... Kyungsung University Hosts 'Mentor Special Lecture Career Talk Show'

Kyungsung University’s University Job Plus Center and Career & Psychological Counseling Center held the 2023 Fall Semester Mentor Special Lecture “Career Talk Show” on October 27 and 31 at the Geonhak Memorial Hall Grand Gymnasium.

The Career Talk Show is a career concern resolution program under the theme “Put Down All Your Fall Career Worries,” where mentors share stories about their career selection process, challenges, and achievements, and students introduce their career concerns (stories) while listening and empathizing with each other’s experiences.

For this program, the student planning team actively participated and organized various events such as a romantic picnic using mosquito nets, a busking performance by the student band (Sebeunumpyo), and flying paper airplanes with career worries attached.

Students who participated in the program shared their impressions, saying, “It was a chance to feel the season and take a break amid busy daily life, and by sharing my worries, I gained courage and confidence,” and “I really liked the enjoyable and free atmosphere, and it felt like a program truly designed for students, so I am very satisfied.”

Professor Shin Minju, head of the Career & Psychological Counseling Center and a mentor in the program, said, “On a deepening autumn night, opening our hearts to the sound of acoustic guitar, we shared our worries about love, friendship, career, and dreams, realizing that these concerns are not mine alone.”

She added, “Above all, the most important thing was the precious time we realized that ‘I, you, and we together are happier.’”

Kyungsung University’s University Job Plus Center and Career & Psychological Counseling Center plan to operate various career programs to raise awareness of the importance of career activities on campus and to spread a career culture.
