Expansion of Integrity Culture in Schools Through Participation of Millennial and Gen Z Teachers and Public Officials
Sharing Innovative Achievements: Integrity Culture Day, Golden Bell, and Integrity Expedition Team

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Kim Seokjun) will hold the "2025 Cheongbaekri Supporters Performance Report and Disbandment Ceremony" at the Education Office's International Conference Room on December 5 in the afternoon.


This event is organized to commend the efforts of the supporters who have worked to prevent preferential treatment practices and promote a culture of mutual respect, thereby fostering a culture of integrity. It also aims to share the achievements of their activities over the past year.


This year, the fourth cohort of Cheongbaekri Supporters was formed in May, consisting of 25 Millennial and Gen Z teachers from public and private schools, as well as local government officials born in the 1980s and 1990s. Under the slogan "Integrity, With Confidence! In Our Own Way!", they went beyond simply proposing policies and brought about meaningful changes by fostering a culture of integrity through practical activities with students and school staff in the field.


The supporters took the lead in spreading a new culture of integrity through initiatives such as: ▲ organizing the festival-style "Integrity Culture Day" with participation from both students and staff; ▲ conducting the "Challenge! Integrity Golden Bell" by visiting schools in person; and ▲ developing the student-led educational material "Integrity Expedition Team." In addition, they participated in the "Integrity Empathy Talk with the Superintendent," where they presented various opinions on blocking preferential treatment practices and establishing a culture of mutual respect.


During the performance report, there will be awards for outstanding participants, presentations on annual achievements and best practices, and discussions on operational directions for the coming year. Through these efforts, the plan is to enhance the supporters' sense of pride and strengthen the foundation for the continued spread of integrity culture.



Superintendent Kim Seokjun said, "The young and fresh perspectives of the Cheongbaekri Supporters, combined with the practical capabilities of future generations of students, have further advanced Busan's integrity policies in a field-oriented manner. We will continue to pursue open and communicative integrity policies that align with the times, so that integrity becomes the top priority for everyone in the Busan education community."
