Ko Gyeong-ae, Chairperson of Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, announced on the 13th that she participated in the child abuse prevention campaign ‘A Special Day, A Special Challenge’ on the 12th.

As the second participant nominee, Chairperson Ko joined the challenge and nominated Father Lee Jun-yong and Seo-gu Council Member Baek Jong-han as the next participants.
Chairperson Ko said, “I hope this challenge becomes widely known and helps promote children’s rights. I will strive to oversee and improve all child-related issues to create an environment where our children can dream of a healthy and happy future.”
