The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Arts Council Korea, and the Game Culture Foundation hosted the '2025 Youth Humanities Healing Camp for Digital Over-immersion (4th session)' at the Gijang Culture and Etiquette School in Busan from the 21st to the 23rd.

This camp saw 27 youths, ranging from fifth-grade elementary students to second-year middle schoolers, participate in activities to address digital over-immersion. The program included humanities-based discussions, creative writing, peer counseling, collaborative performance art, Kapla block stacking, and horticultural therapy.

The core of the experience was an eight-session humanities program designed to foster self-reflection and the importance of communication. It was structured to help participants develop empathy and self-regulation skills. During the camp, a special lecture for parents was held to discuss the importance of humanities-based approaches to digital over-immersion. Parents learned healthy communication methods and explored ways to improve digital usage habits at home.

Heo Jeong-seon, head of the Busan Game Over-immersion Healing Center, stated, "I hope this humanities healing camp serves as a meaningful turning point for these youths to regain self-regulation and practice maintaining a healthy distance from their digital devices."

Yoo Byung-han, Chairman of the Game Culture Foundation, said, "It is meaningful to have successfully concluded four sessions of this humanities healing camp, starting from the Honam region to the capital area, the Chungcheong region, and now the Gyeongsang region. We will continue to strengthen our humanities-based prevention and healing programs to support our youth in growing into balanced individuals in the digital age."
