On the 28th, the Jeonju Pyeonghwa Library held a humanities lecture titled 'The Essence of History and Culture in Jeollabuk-do and the Korean Peninsula Part I' for 50 citizens at 2 p.m.

The third lecture of the year was conducted by Kim Gyeong-min, the director of the Jeollabuk-do History and Culture Education Institute, who spoke about the origin of 'essence' and the concept of public history, focusing on the history of Jeollado from Mahan onwards.

This humanities lecture, held in collaboration with the Jeonbuk Performing Arts Promotion Association, is a program aimed at promoting local culture and history. It will take place four times from March to July on the fourth Saturday of each month. The next lecture is scheduled for July 26 on the same topic.
