The open review committee system is designed to enhance the professionalism and fairness of the support project evaluation and to expand the participation of external experts, thereby enabling assessments from diverse perspectives. Those selected through this recruitment process will be eligible to participate in the review of next year’s arts support project.

Eligible applicants include arts professionals both within and outside the province who have at least 10 years of experience or activity in relevant fields such as cultural and artistic creation, planning, criticism, or administration.

The selection process involves a qualification review, followed by evaluation and resolution by the ‘Review Committee Selection Committee’ to finalize the appointments. Those ultimately selected will be registered in the Gangwon Cultural Foundation’s review committee pool and appointed until December 2027. The committee member selection process will be conducted through a random system.

The foundation will strictly prevent conflicts of interest during the committee formation and review process. Even after appointment, it will clearly enforce procedures for disqualification and dismissal in cases of ineligibility or violations of ethical standards.

Shin Hyunsang, CEO of Gangwon Cultural Foundation, stated, “We will establish a fair and transparent review system to create a support project selection environment that everyone can trust.”
