Korea University Business School 55th Student Council Film … Capturing the Brilliant Moments of University Life  

 

Last march, the 55th KUBS student council Film was elected with great support from their fellow students (95.3% approval). Throughout the semester, the 55th student council Film has been working around the clock. Starting in April, they had a project ‘A moment of Memories’ for April Fool’s day and in May, they had the KUBS Festival. Looking ahead, they are planning Re-orientation camp, field day and the KUBS MT. The KUBS Newspaper had the opportunity to ask the leaders of the 55th student council Film – President Jungwon Lee and Vice-president Eung Je Kim – about their achievements in the first semester and their future plans.  

  

 

Q. Please Introduce the KUBS 55th Student Council, Film. 

 

A. Student Council President Jungwon Lee (hereinafter Jungwon Lee): Hello, I am the KUBS Student council president Jungwon Lee. Our slogan is “Capture your Brightest Moment” and we are making all-round efforts to make the university life of the youth shine.  

 

Student Council Vice-president Eung Je Kim (hereinafter Eung Je Kim): Hello, I am the vice-president Eung Je Kim. I would like to describe our identity with the word ‘youth’. Due to the unique situation of Covid-19, it seems that our students have lost their youth. We decided to run for the student council to help KUBS students reclaim their lost youth and we chose the name ‘Film’ for our campaign team, to signify recording it.   

 

 

Q. What is the goal of KUBS student council Film?  

 

A. Jungwon Lee: Before we were elected, it was to break away from the previous emergency response committee system and independently carry out student activities. We aimed to address issues such as lack of people to work and budget execution of the emergency response committee and to implement cultural and welfare projects for our students.  

 

Eung je Kim: After being elected, our goal was to leave a lot of references for future student councils. There is a conservative atmosphere when it comes to implementing new projects that have not been done before by the student council, so we wanted to allow future students councils to have a bit more freedom in planning various events.  

 

 

Q. How was the response from the students regarding the KUBS Festival, and do you have any self-reviews or feedback?  

  

A. Jungwon Lee: The goal of this year’s festival was ‘to create a festival with extensive participation of KUBS students.’ Although we expanded the scale of booths, stages, and pubs significantly, we were able to cover the budget due to the support of the alumni and various companies, despite the limited student council budget. Through this event, we realized that we can organized high-quality events with a small budget if we work hard, so we plan to work even harder in the future.  

 

Q. What are your plans for the 2nd semester in terms of projects and events?  

 

A. Eung Je Kim: We are planning the Re-orientation camp, a field day, KUBS MT. ‘Re-orientation camp’ will be for the class of 19~21, who were not able to attend the ‘Freshmen Orientation cam’ due to Covid-19, and the field day and KUBS MT will be designed to allow all students, regardless of academic year and age to come together and enjoy.  

 

Jungwon Lee: Apart from this, we have already finalized dates for events like career fair and club fair with the Career Development Center. We are also preparing mentoring programs where alumni will meet students once or twice a month. We will continue the events that were held in the first semester, such as snack events, night snack events, military bus service and locker allocations, and we are planning a joint opening party with the five classes of KUBS. We are also in charge of monitoring and managing the escalators that were suspended due to Covid-19 but have been restarted.  

  

Q. What kind of student council does ‘Film’ want to be remembered as by the students? 

 

A. Eung Je Kim: People often say, “That’s how it used to be”. During our term, students will attend various events and we hope that they can look back and say “Thanks to them this aspect was fun, it was good. They brought these changes”. We want to be remembered as a student council that have lived up to our slogan, “Capture your Brightest Moment,” and we hope that students can look back at photos we took and the records we left behind and bring back fond memories.    

  

 

Q. Do you have anything to say to the students?  

 

A. Eung Je Kim: First, we would like to express our gratitude for trusting us and electing us. If there are any shortcoming, please criticize us constructively and if there are areas we did well in, please offer your compliment. We hope that you enjoy the projects we have prepared, and we look forward for the remaining term.  

 

Jungwon Lee: Since the student council was retained last year, many events have come back. We will continue to work hard, so we hope this year can be the most brilliant moment of your university life. Thank you.
