Highlights from DAEGU CITIZEN PRESS 2018 Orientation!

Finally, Daegu Citizen Press 2018 started its term the past Friday. Members for this year went through a competitive selection process. Only 1 out of 3 candidates were chosen to serve as a messenger for the Colorful Daegu channels. 

Nice to meet you all!

The orientation began in the late afternoon and familiar faces from the photos started to appear. Daegu Citizen Press consists of 3 groups by language: Korean, English and Chinese. 

For English group, we have 14 reporters from  from 8 countries: Ghana, Hungary, Nigerian, Pakistan, Philipines, Spain, Vietnam and USA. They will bring their own unique perspectives to our blog and facebook!:)
