These students learned about the history and various cultural heritages of Jindo, gained hands-on experience at the sites, and even wrote their own scripts for the tours, acquiring the knowledge needed to provide explanations.

Following the first session in 2023, this is the second time the junior guide training program has been conducted. As part of the 'Jindo-eup Urban Regeneration Recognition Project,' it aims to help students learn about the history and culture of the region and introduce Jindo as recorded by children themselves.

Going forward, the junior guides plan to participate in activities such as exploring notable people and places in Jindo-eup, creating village maps, and archiving records of Jindo-eup.

A county official stated, "Elementary school students have been trained as junior guides through education designed to help them properly understand our region's history and culture. We plan to continue providing education for local students to promote our county's diverse cultural heritage in the future."
