HYBE announced on September 3 that it has launched the 'HI, HIGH' program, a course that teaches 28 young people practical skills in the K-pop industry and content production.

'HI, HIGH' is part of the 'K-New Deal Academy' project, which is supported by the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy to help young people develop job skills and find employment.

The trainees will learn about the K-pop industry and its business structure, and experience the full process of content production—including planning, filming, and editing—through team projects. The program will also offer career support modules focused on self-understanding, personality diagnostics, collaboration, and communication skills.

The course will run for about 12 weeks until November 20, and trainees who complete the entire program will receive a certificate of completion. Outstanding trainees will be offered internships at HYBE.

HYBE held the orientation ceremony the previous day at its Yongsan headquarters in Seoul, attended by trainees and instructors.

A HYBE representative stated, "We hope this program will offer young people the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the entertainment industry and content production, as well as to build the skill sets required in related fields."
