The education program will be held at the Gangnam Future Education Center every Saturday for six weeks, from October 17 to November 21, totaling six sessions, each lasting 100 minutes. The participants will be 30 students ranging from sixth grade in elementary school to third grade in middle school within the district.

During the first and second weeks, a practicing attorney will teach methods of legal interpretation, basics of civil and criminal law, and fundamental AI regulations, while students will independently assess their legal reasoning skills and attitudes using the "Legal Mindset Diagnostic Kit." In weeks three to six, participants will form teams with facilitators who are prospective law school students, identify community issues, and present solutions based on legal grounds. Outstanding teams will be invited to present at a year-end results presentation event held at the Kim & Chang headquarters in Gwanghwamun.

Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis from September 29 to October 8 through the Gangnam Future Education Center website. For more details, contact the Gangnam-gu Office Education Support Division.
