As we enter an era of average age 100, entertainment shows including the elderly generation is growing popular. Yecheon’s ‘Green Silver Orchestra’ team provided an opportunity for the elderly aged 75+ to try new hobbies in life’s ‘second act’ and get involved in group activities. There was a challenge to perform on a big stage under the theme, ‘Brilliant Silver life with Joyful Music and Happy life.’ The story of Yecheon’s elders is expressed through the programme, ‘What is your wish?’ which aims to show us that it is never too late to work toward their dreams.

In Korea, only 10% of Koreans read books for more than 10 minutes a day. This activity is being neglected.
The domestic publishing industry is also facing growing concerns. Due to this, it was deemed necessary to revive the book publishing industry and create a book-reading culture in Korea through publicity and film.
We covered the villages and spaces related to reading and publishing industries in Korea and visited the world-famous book-villages in nations including Belgium, France, and Scotland, to draw the audience toward a resurrection of Korean book reading culture.
