The briefing will be conducted by Lee Juhan, a current admission consultant at the Jung-gu College Counseling Center and former admissions officer at Korea University, and Lee Jaewon, a current admissions officer at Dongguk University.

Lee Juhan will deliver a lecture on the 2021 college early admission strategies along with an analysis of the June mock exam and ways to utilize it for early admission. Lee Jaewon will follow with a lecture titled "How to Get Accepted through the Comprehensive Student Record Screening." After the lectures, a separate Q&A session will be held, providing valuable information for high school seniors and their parents regarding college early admission.

Attendees must register on the mobile electronic roster at the entrance to gain entry, wear masks at all times, and maintain a 2-meter distance between participants in accordance with preventive measures.
