LG Hausys, in partnership with the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs, is holding the 3rd Nara Sarang Space-Sharing Idea Competition through August 31, open to students from the fourth grade of elementary school through middle and high school.
Now in its third year, the competition is part of LG Hausys' social contribution activities carried out through space sharing, and was launched to foster students' interest in and affection for memorial facilities and historic spaces.
The competition is open to students from the fourth grade of elementary school through middle and high school. To take part, participants prepare improvement ideas or reflections that could transform a memorial facility designated by the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs into an even more meaningful space, write them up in PowerPoint format, and submit the file as an attachment on the entry page.
Awards will be given to a total of 33 recipients across the elementary, middle, and high school divisions, with one Minister of Patriots and Veterans Affairs Award, two Gold Awards, four Silver Awards, and four Bronze Awards in each division. Winners will receive prize money worth 12 million won along with certificates bearing the endorsement of the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs.
Entries will be fairly judged by experts, and ideas selected for excellence awards are slated to be adopted as actual improvement plans in the future.
For submissions and inquiries, refer to the competition website, The Contest, and the LG Hausys website. Competition winners will be notified individually on September 7, and details of the awards ceremony will be communicated separately at a later date.
An LG Hausys official said, "During the summer vacation, we wanted to give students who had been focused solely on their studies an opportunity to take part in a meaningful competition," adding, "Participating students will become aware of nearby memorial facilities they had not known about, and by visiting them in person, they will also be able to strengthen their sense of history."
