At the Youth Culture Center, operated by Koryoin Village, the students held Korean language classes and participated in Korean cultural experience activities together with Koryoin youths. They assisted with Korean language education using a variety of learning tools and engaged in craft activities, creating opportunities for cultural exchange.
Additionally, some students took part in environmental cleanup activities along the village trail and in the Hong Beomdo Park area. They collected litter and tidied up the surroundings, focusing on areas frequently visited by tourists, thereby contributing to the improvement of the village's appearance.
A representative from Koryoin Village stated, "The students' warm support was a great comfort and encouragement," and added, "We hope this experience becomes a valuable opportunity for them to reflect on their neighbors and the local community."
