CONNECTED SOCIETY

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Jinan is around 200 km (3 hours by express bus) away from Seoul. It is surrounded by mountains and well-known for beautiful sceneries. And it produces various healthy foods and agricultural products. It also has famous historical places and cities nearby such as Jeonju, Muju and Iksan so that it is convenient to visit and enjoy them. Jinan is also facing the depopulation and aging society issues like other provinces in Korea. It causes the depressed atmosphere of local villages because there are less young people and new happenings. The residents of Jinan have worked long to solve population decline especially that of teenagers and twenties. They are open minded to welcome and share their cultures to people.

💼 What the programme involves
