Yeongju City, North Gyeongsang Province, will hold the "August Yeongju Character Academy" at the Yeongju Culture and Arts Center on August 26 at 2:00 p.m.
This lecture will feature broadcast personality Tyler Rasch, who will take the stage and engage with citizens under the theme "Variety Beneath the Lamp."
He is recognized as a leading intellectual fluent in seven languages, having majored in International Politics at the University of Chicago and earned a master's degree in Diplomacy from Seoul National University Graduate School.
Tyler became known to the public through JTBC's "Non-Summit" and has since been active in various fields including broadcasting, lectures, and publishing. His book "There Is No Second Earth," which delivers a message on the environment and sustainability, became a bestseller.
In this lecture, he will highlight the "value of diversity" that enriches our society and share practical ways to incorporate it into everyday life.
Prior to the lecture, starting at 1:30 p.m., gugak singer Son Ji-hye will take the stage to energize the atmosphere with a fusion gugak performance that bridges tradition and modernity. Admission to the lecture is on a first-come, first-served basis and does not require prior registration.
Kim Hojung, Director of the Seonbi Talent Development Division of Yeongju City, stated, "We hope this lecture will serve as a starting point for a culture that respects and understands our differences," adding, "We will continue to provide humanities lectures that enrich the hearts of our citizens."
The Yeongju Character Academy will be held a total of 15 times this year to foster character development among citizens and expand lifelong learning opportunities. Next month, Korea's first profiler, Professor Kwon Ilyong, will give a lecture on the theme "Profiling and the Psychology of Healing Communication."
