Busan City Public Library Operates Interactive Storytelling Program

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The Busan City Library will operate an experiential storytelling program for children aged 5 to 7 throughout this year.

Experiential storytelling is a reading content program that applies the latest virtual reality technologies such as 3D virtual spaces and motion recognition programs to storytelling, allowing children to directly experience becoming the main character in a story.
