This event aimed not only to host a cheerful sports day but also to share the activities of participants in youth programs carried out throughout the year and to expand exchanges among local youth. Various side events were organized, including band and dance performances, a photo exhibition showcasing the achievements of Namyangju City's 2025 youth support projects, and youth policy proposals. Over 100 young people attended, making the event even more vibrant.

The name "Golden Play" symbolizes the hope that the youth's challenges and growth will lead to golden achievements. During the event, the photo exhibition on youth support projects highlighted the outcomes of more than 20 initiatives promoted by the Youth Policy Division this year. In addition, performances by the "Barkkasten" band-students from the music school-and youth dance school students received enthusiastic responses from the audience.

The cheerful sports day that followed began with a pledge by a youth representative and featured a variety of team competitions such as rolling a large ball and building a vision tower, fostering an atmosphere where participants could naturally cooperate and communicate with one another.

One young participant said, "After becoming an adult, I haven't had the opportunity to join a sports day, so it was great to sweat together, cheer each other on, and share encouragement after a long time. Through the youth support project photo exhibition, I learned about many new initiatives, and I plan to participate in the programs next year."

Mayor Joo Kwangdeok, who visited the venue to support the youth, stated, "This event was a meaningful opportunity to directly witness how the achievements of youth policies implemented so far are being realized on the ground. We will continue to strengthen the policy foundation so that young people can grow and settle in the local community."
