Dobong District Launches Seoul’s First Pilot Operation of ‘Lifelong Learning Popup School’

The 'Lifelong Learning Popup School,' a model for community-based lifelong learning in Seoul, has opened at the 'Moduon' platform on Ssangridan-gil in Dobong District (43 Dobong-ro 112-gil, 3rd floor), with Ohn Seok serving as mayor. According to the district, full-scale operations began on April 2, following the opening event.

The Lifelong Learning Popup School is a space where residents can continue learning during their daily routines, such as evenings after work or on weekends, without having to travel long distances. 'Moduon' was selected as the pilot site for this initiative because of its excellent accessibility near a subway station, high foot traffic, and sufficiently large lecture and lounge areas.

Over the next two months, various programs tailored to the local characteristics of Dobong District will be offered, including digital-based employment and entrepreneurship programs, senior education specialization programs, special lectures by prominent figures, and hands-on learning experiences. Program applications are available through the Seoul Lifelong Learning Portal.

Ohn Seok, Mayor of Dobong District, stated, "The launch of the Lifelong Learning Popup School in Dobong District will not only provide residents with a variety of educational opportunities but also serve as a foundation for establishing a new model for lifelong learning."
