The Democratic Party of Korea is establishing a youth civic center, tentatively named 'Hub 123,' near Hapjeong Station in Seoul. The initiative aims to create a space where young people can freely express their opinions and where the party can develop related policies.
Park Sung-jun, the party's chief spokesperson, spoke to reporters after a closed Supreme Council meeting on the 18th, stating, "Representative Kim Min-seok has proposed creating a space for the youth generation to gather their opinions and voice them." He added that various conditions were assessed before deciding on the Hapjeong area.
Park explained that the name 'Hub 123' reflects the intention to encompass individuals in their teens, twenties, and thirties, as well as commemorating the day the martial law was lifted on December 3. He noted, "We are preparing a space where youth policies can be formulated and where young people can freely share their stories," and mentioned plans to install microphones for youth in the open studio area.
Initially, the Democratic Party intended to set up the youth center near Gwanghwamun in Jongno, but due to space constraints, they opted for a building located between Hapjeong and Mangwon stations.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Council also made additional appointments on the same day. Kwon Hyang-yeop was appointed as the chair of the Small and Medium Enterprises Special Committee, Boo Seung-chan as the chair of the Northeast Asia Peace Cooperation Special Committee, and Lee Joo-hee as the chair of the Information and Communication Special Committee. Additionally, a task force for the normalization of the liquidation association proposed by Kim Young-ho and a task force for a student-exclusive smartphone project for the Alpha generation were also established.
