Haeundae District will host a 'Youth Week Festival' on the 19th at the Haeundae Cultural Center in celebration of Youth Day.
Under the slogan 'Youth, Here and Now,' the event is designed to facilitate interaction among young people preparing for their careers and those embarking on new challenges.
The main event will take place from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the 19th, coinciding with the district's designated Youth Week from the 19th to the 23rd.
The highlight of the festival is a job mentoring concert featuring 17 current and former employees from global and domestic companies.
Scheduled for 3 p.m. in the Haeun Hall, the event will include speakers from major companies such as Nike, Amazon, Samsung Electronics, and SK Hynix, who will conduct employment lectures and a talk show.
Following the lectures, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in small group discussions with professionals, allowing for in-depth questions about companies, job roles, and the employment preparation process, as well as hearing firsthand experiences from local professionals.
Prior to this, at 1:30 p.m. in the Haeun Hall, musical actor Kim Ho-young will hold a talk concert. Known for his roles in productions like 'Rent,' 'Aida,' and 'Kinky Boots,' he will share his experiences of choices, challenges, and growth with the youth.
There will also be a Q&A session where young attendees can ask questions about careers, dreams, and relationships.
At 3 p.m. in the Go-un Hall, an audience-participation impromptu musical titled 'Oops' will take place. This unique performance will be created on the spot based on keywords suggested by the audience, without a pre-written script or score.
Additionally, various experiential programs and booths for young people will be available throughout the venue. One-day classes will focus on personal color analysis, employment makeup, body type diagnosis, aromatherapy, and calligraphy to help attendees discover their image and style.
Other attractions include 'Failure Daiso,' where participants can freely share their experiences of failure, a 'Youth Photo Studio' to capture current moments, and a 'Youth Recharge Café' for relaxation. There will also be booths providing information on support programs in employment, housing, and welfare.
A representative from Haeundae District expressed hope that the festival will encourage young people to embrace new challenges and provide an opportunity for communication and rejuvenation, urging local youth to participate actively.
