SEJONG — Sejong is accepting applications through Oct. 23 for "Sejong Connect," a program that arranges meetings for single men and women who live or work in the city.

The events will be held on Nov. 14 and Nov. 21. They are built around casual conversation and social activities designed to let participants get to know one another without pressure. Applicants must be single, aged 25 or older — born in 2001 or earlier — and either live or work in Sejong. The city plans to recruit 80 participants in total, 40 for each event.

"We hope young people living in Sejong will find good matches within the community and settle here naturally," said Kim Ryeo-su, head of the city's Health and Welfare Bureau.
