After the training, participants expressed their willingness to participate in voting by holding placards that read, "Vote in the 21st Presidential Election. We are the owners."

Yoon Hyekyung, Director of the Seo-gu Family Center, stated, "Multicultural immigrants must also exercise their rights as proud voters of Korea," and added, "We will continue to support the voting participation of multicultural voters through various customized education and campaigns in the future."
