The ‘Kmang Kmang’ Team (photo above) comprised of YU Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul international students Cheng Mardy (25, Cambodia), Muhammad Nur Syamsi (30, Indonesia), Ngo Tien Binh (29, Vietnam), and Basukala Sandeep (28, Nepal), received the grand prize.
 
  Under the theme ‘Saemaul for the Better World’, the ‘Kmang Kmang’ team explained about Cheongdo where the Saemaul Undong first started and the start of the Saemaul Undong in the 1970s for forest development and the development of Korea in a two-minute video, receiving high scores.

Cheng Mardy said, “Taking the video contents production course offered by the YU PR team was very helpful. We were able to integrate the video production and editing skills with the knowledge learned in our majors at the graduate school to share our message in a short video.”
 
  Meanwhile, the Koffie Samuel (40) and Arthur Rexford (32) team (photo on right) who are international students from Ghana studying at the Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul who took part in this contest also received the Participation Prize. The two teams that were awarded were all composed of international students, but it was found that they had higher understanding on Saemaul than other participating Korean students as they are students majoring in Saemaul.
