Pearl Abyss announced on the 6th that it held the 'Ding-a-Ding' Project Chungbuk regional qualifier at the Danyang Maepo Elementary School gymnasium on the 3rd, in partnership with the Danyang Office of Education.

The 'Ding-a-Ding' Project is a corporate social responsibility program by Pearl Abyss designed to help the next generation develop creative thinking and collaboration skills under the slogan, Coding the Possibilities of Coding. The program provides students in regions with limited access to coding education with hands-on experience in game development, aiming to bridge the digital education gap and foster future talent. Since its inception in 2022, approximately 1700 students across 16 regions have participated in the program.

The Chungbuk regional qualifier saw high engagement and enthusiasm from around 100 students from local elementary schools, including Gapyeong, Danyang, Maepo, Sangjin, and Yeongchun Elementary Schools, who participated in various digital-based career exploration activities. The Danyang Office of Education plans to continue operating diverse, experience-centered programs in collaboration with local communities and professional organizations to promote student-tailored career education and digital-based future learning.

Pearl Abyss plans to select top-performing teams from the regional qualifiers and invite them to participate in the final hackathon, which will be held at the Pearl Abyss Home One headquarters this November.
