Korean classmates, young people,
Today is the ‘1st Day of Youth’. In accordance with the Basic Youth Law, the date of the third Saturday in September each year was set by the young people themselves.
Like the autumn sky, we have chosen the venue for today’s event to be green and green, with the heart of a young man with tall, blue dreams.
‘Youth (靑 年)’ literally means ‘blue age’. It is ‘immaculate purity’ and ‘justice’, and it is also ‘infinite imagination’ and ‘defiant spirit’. Sometimes even ‘ungodliness’ is a privilege that only young blues can enjoy.
Everyone is in a difficult situation, but today the young man is the protagonist. I hope it is a day for people to support and encourage the dreams and challenges of the young people by their side.
It took six years for the ‘Basic Youth Law’ to be enacted. It is a promise that the state will share in the difficulties that the youth had to overcome alone. Above all, young people themselves were making great efforts to enact the Framework Law on Youth. Holding a sign, he went to the trail and had 10,000 people join. Local governments and governments also responded. We enacted the Basic Youth Ordinance, tested various youth policies, and had valuable results.
Now, the legal basis has been laid for youth to participate as subjects of direct policy formulation, and government and local governments can systematically promote youth policies. The ‘Basic Youth Law’ is a ‘general playing field’ designed at the request of the youth and created by the youth and the state. It is a playground open to all young people. It is a playground that strengthens the muscles of life and fosters hope. It’s a playground where you can go back and prepare for the next one even if you fail, and a playground where you meet friends and fill in each other’s shortcomings.
The government will do everything possible for the “fair chance.” I hope young people will imagine, challenge, and run vigorously towards their dreams. The government will establish a support system for each sport and will back it up with the best facilities so that young people can carry out the training and experiments they want.
Young people, today I would like to speak openly about your justice and our society.
The older generation has long lived in a society where privilege and fault are rampant. Vested rights inherited wealth and honor, and the collusion of politics took fault and privilege for granted. The dictatorship divided the heart of the people into ideology and region and created a structural injustice. When older generations have grown accustomed to injustice, it has always been the young who have raised issues and sought justice in our society. Our government also wanted to be with the youth and we advanced step by step towards equity, justice and an equal society.
However, I still hear the anger of young people for being unfair. We see examples of injustice that seem to repeat themselves endlessly. In the process of fighting for justice, some injustices finally emerged. Things like ‘injustice in the system’ and ‘inertial preferences’. Sometimes one process has led to another injustice. Resolving discrimination between regular and non-regular workers, on the one hand, seemed to close the door to opportunity. The fact that the eyes that look at the process are different became an opportunity to reflect on the process.
It will take more time for the fair to adapt to the culture of our society. Trial and error or conflicts may arise. But we need the conviction that we must follow the path of justice. Whenever an injustice appears, we must work together to fix it one by one. If those efforts come together and come together, as with other changes and developments, at some point you will see that we are striving for the goal of justice. We hope that our young people breathe deeply with such conviction towards a just society.
Justice is the spirit of the candlelight revolution, and even if it is not achieved, it is the unwavering goal of our government.
The fair economy guarantees fair opportunities for economic activities for young people. Only when the fair economy is institutionalized can innovation efforts be adequately compensated for and even if they fail, can they rise again. The government has solved most of the circular chains of stock holdings of large corporate groups and has improved unfair business practices in outsourcing, franchising and distribution. If the Third Law of Fair Economy, like the Commercial Law, is in force, you will be able to experience the results in the field.
For “fairness” to be reestablished from a youth perspective, as well as from a fair economy, fairness must be felt in all aspects of recruitment, education, military service, society, and culture. Every year a thorough investigation of the employment situation of public institutions will be carried out to eradicate labor corruption. . We will continue education reform to reorganize the high school hierarchical system and strengthen equity in college admissions. The “Prohibition of Harassment in the Workplace Act” has also been enacted and enforced to prevent unfair treatment and mistreatment of young people in the workplace.
The government is reducing the high demands of young people for “justice” and will surely respond. We will further strengthen our efforts to eradicate corruption, tax evasion and violence in sports. The government’s commitment to stabilize the real estate market, protect end-users such as youth, and contain speculation is firm. We will continue to expand the housing supply and do everything possible to protect the home of newlyweds and young people. The reform of the institutions of power, the basis of a just society, will also be achieved to the end.
In any society, there are jobs that are achieved only through repetitive work and become skilled workers, and there are jobs that require you to prove your ability through intense study and examination. All occupations are interlinked, and society balances itself by filling in the voids of others. This balance, of course, can be maintained when we respect the work of others. Being treated fairly and equitably in any case will be essential. The government will boldly ameliorate the injustices that exist throughout people’s lives so that “justice” takes root in our society. I hope young people will take the initiative and join forces.
Young people, the burden on the shoulders of young people has changed with the times. When the elderly were young, they had to bear the brunt of colonization, war, and poverty. Some generations have devoted their precious youth to industrialization and democratization. Today’s youth face more complex and diverse issues than before, including employment, housing, education, social participation, and quality of life. Corona, in particular, is making the shoulders of young men heavier. Finding a job has become more difficult and concerns about tuition have increased. There are self-employed young people who have to worry about closing their business and an increasing number of newlyweds are worried about finding a home.
The government has created a “Special Youth Employment Support Program” in the supplemental fourth draft. In addition to existing employment support, we will provide a “special job search allowance” to 200,000 young people. In order to support self-employed youth affected by social distancing, the “ New Hope Fund for Small Entrepreneurs ” was also established, which includes 100,000 newlyweds in Hope Town and 250,000 public rental houses, as well as 880,000 newlyweds and 750,000 young people. We will also strengthen the supply of public housing and financial support. Additionally, based on communication with youth, we have already announced the ‘Second Youth Life Improvement Plan’, which includes expanding additional youth employment incentives and reducing school fees.
When you feel confident, you can face bold challenges. The government’s capacity will focus on creating an environment where young people can get back on their feet if they fail basic safety nets such as employment, housing and education.
Now let’s challenge again with the belief that others protect each other. Young people have lived with digital since we were born in the best ICT environment in the world, so we are the fastest and most flexible generation to embrace the post-corona era away from face to face. He has the most powerful weapon to lead a new era.
The culture of free communication among young people is another skill that older generations do not have. Brilliant ideas and sensibilities are competitive, and empathy is the best competitiveness.
Corona has created a situation where tomorrow is unknown to us, but on the one hand, it could be a golden opportunity for us. Now we can finally stand side by side in the ‘new and equal starting line’ of the ‘post-crown era’ with the leading countries.
It is an unknown path that no one has ever been on, but the generation that can follow the most creative and courageous path is the Korean youth. Although it is difficult in many ways at the moment, I think it is okay to look back and feel confident about how great the potential of our young generation is. I hope they have the confidence that “we can make a country that is a leader in the world beyond the previous generation.”
Young Koreans have already become the world’s leading ‘scary kids’ in various fields. BTS and pianist Donghyuk Lim, who attended this event today, and all the young people who challenge for their dreams are the protagonists.
Korean classmates, young people,
Yesterday the “Youth Policy Coordination Committee” was launched for the first time. Young people will be in charge of 60% of the civic committees, and you will be able to deal with their own problems and find solutions.
Our youth’s DNA of innovation is most powerful only when they believe in a ‘just society’. On the basis of “opportunity and fairness”, we will promote government policies from the perspective of young people and with the hearts of young people so that the “dreams” and the “challenge” come true. Today the ‘1st Day of Youth’ is the beginning. Youth is a new era, a new protagonist.
