Songpa-gu (Mayor Seo Gang-seok) announced that it is conducting the "Environmental Awareness Improvement Education with a Magician" for about 4,500 residents from August 14 to September 30 by visiting elementary schools and welfare institutions in the area.

The district planned this education to raise awareness of the seriousness of environmental issues such as rapidly increasing climate change and to encourage eco-friendly lifestyle habits so that the will to protect the environment can lead to actual practice.

Previously, in November last year, the district conducted magic-based environmental awareness improvement education for 3,000 children at 12 elementary schools in the area. By combining an engaging participatory magic show with what could have been a boring environmental class, it received a positive response from the children.

Encouraged by the great response, this year the education target has been greatly expanded to include not only children but also families and working adults. Education is being provided to about 4,500 people.

A professional magician visits 16 elementary schools, comprehensive social welfare centers, and companies in the area to perform a magic show lasting about 50 minutes that highlights the necessity of environmental protection.

First, through "Environmental Video Education," the seriousness of environmental pollution and the climate crisis we currently face is shown to raise awareness of environmental issues.

Next, in the "Earth Keeper Magic Performance," a magician appears to conduct an exciting and informative audience participation performance. The magic show, composed of eight stages including recycling, levitation, and eco-friendly lifestyle practices, helps participants naturally learn habits for environmental protection.

Finally, through "Sand Art," participants meet endangered African animals and are reminded of the necessity of environmental protection.

Seo Gang-seok, Mayor of Songpa-gu, stated, "It is time for everyone to practice environmental protection for a healthy Earth, nature, and the happy lives of both the current and future generations," adding, "I hope this participatory environmental education, which combines magic and education rather than one-way lecture-style teaching, will raise awareness of the seriousness of environmental issues and serve as an opportunity for environmental protection to lead to practical actions in daily life."
