YouTube Video Contest on the Story of Korean Buddhism for Foreigners Residing in Korea

○ The International Team of the Social Affairs Office in the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism hosts aYouTube Video Contest on the Story of Korean Buddhism for foreigners living in Korea.

○The YouTube Video Contest aims to identify foreigners living in Korea who can help promote Korean Buddhism to their home countries and motivate them by awarding prize money.

○All foreign nationals who are currently residing in Korea can apply, including foreign Buddhist monks living in Korea. Korean Buddhism is varicolored and multi-faceted, made of many different parts, for instance, diverse cultural heritage, spiritual faith, and ecological values affirming mother nature. Applicants can choose one such aspect and make a short video clip introducing it to their people back home.

○We hope that the contest will serve as an opportunity to spread the story of Korean Buddhism to the world, adding yet another new side as seen by the foreigners living in Korea to this incredibly layered and multi-dimensional story that is Korean Buddhism.
