Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung Ryul) announced that its University Job Plus Center, in collaboration with the Seoul Metropolitan Government, operated the “Seoul Youth Policy Tips Bus” on campus on Thursday, March 19, 2026.
The “Seoul Youth Policy Tips Bus” is an on-site outreach program in which the Seoul Metropolitan Government visits university campuses to provide counseling and guidance, with the aim of conveying youth policy information more easily and reducing policy blind spots. The program ran from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. that day, with approximately 750 current students participating.
On-site, customized counseling focused on housing and employment—key concerns for young people—was provided. In the housing sector, counseling covered policies closely related to daily life, such as support for real estate brokerage fees and moving expenses, as well as monthly rent assistance. At the job and employment counseling booths, one-on-one personalized consulting was offered to students.
Kookmin University’s University Job Plus Center also operated a separate booth to provide information on extracurricular programs and career and employment counseling services available on campus. This allowed students to not only access information on youth policies but also receive practical assistance by connecting with the university’s career and employment support system.
One student who attended the event and received housing counseling said, “It was helpful to be able to learn about youth policies I wasn’t previously aware of all in one place,” adding, “It was a great help to receive detailed guidance on how to access further counseling.”
An official from Kookmin University’s University Job Plus Center stated, “This program was designed to make it easier for students to access the policy information they need and receive on-site counseling immediately,” adding, “We will continue to expand customized career and employment support services for students by collaborating with relevant agencies, including the Seoul Metropolitan Government.”
Meanwhile, the Seoul Metropolitan Government plans to operate the “Seoul Living Tips” initiative through the end of the year, starting with this “Seoul Youth Policy Tips Bus,” targeting young people who have recently moved to Seoul and those in the early stages of their careers. Through this initiative, the city intends to continuously provide various policy information necessary for settling in Seoul.
