The Korea Radio Promotion Association, in collaboration with Gyeonggi-do Provincial Government and Gyeonggi Content Agency, is recruiting participating companies and trainees for the 2024 ‘Gyeonggi-do Broadcasting & Media Youth Internship’ (hereinafter referred to as Youth Internship) to provide local youth aspiring to enhance their practical skills in the broadcasting and media field and connect them with employment opportunities.

This youth internship program aims to foster future broadcasters who dream of becoming broadcasting and video content creators into practical professionals equipped with both theory and practice. It achieves this by connecting broadcasting and media companies with trainees to support hands-on training.

Participating companies can be any company specializing in one or more fields within the broadcasting and media industry, including content planning & distribution (PD, writer, marketer), production technology (filming, sound), post-production (CG, VFX, etc.), new media (short-form, web content, etc.), lighting, and stage. Trainees must be residents of Gyeonggi-do (youth) or students attending universities located in Gyeonggi-do.

The 20 selected trainees will receive hands-on training at participating companies for approximately 4 months. This training will enhance their practical skills, support portfolio management for career development, and provide a monthly training allowance of approximately KRW 2,060,000 (2024 minimum wage). Following the completion of the training, job placement opportunities will also be provided.

This training program aims to strengthen the practical skills of local youth in the media field while simultaneously promoting employment connections, creating structured job opportunities. This highlights Gyeonggi-do’s commitment to becoming a ‘province of opportunity’ for young people.

Song Jung-soo, Standing Vice President of the Korea Radio Promotion Association, stated, “The youth internship program serves as a stepping stone for trainees to acquire specialized knowledge, hands-on experience, and explore job opportunities. The Korea Radio Promotion Association will continue to collaborate with the Gyeonggi Content Agency to focus on practical training that addresses the industry’s workforce demands, actively supporting the fostering of young broadcasting and media talent in the province.”
