The council meeting was attended by representatives from various local organizations including Ulleung County Office, Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology, Ulleung Yerimwon, Dokdo Volunteer Defense Corps Memorial Hall, the Education Support Office, and schools. They discussed collaboratively how to build a career environment and develop programs that can realize the dreams and hopes of students in the Ulleung area.

Through in-depth discussions on this year’s career camp ‘Dream Path Together Borahae,’ excellent experience sites and program development, and ways to activate educational donations utilizing local infrastructure, they promised to find and create methods for substantial career education together.

Nam Gun-hyun, Superintendent of Ulleung Education Support Office, said, “Many Ulleung students do not know much about Ulleung Island. I hope that local organizations will take the lead in providing students with many career programs utilizing local infrastructure so that students can grow into talents who can work for Ulleung in the future.”
