Abstract

This study investigated and analyzed the awareness of the necessity for the activation of the youth organization the “Korea 119 Youth Corps,” focusing on educators and firefighting officials actively involved in its operation. A total of 350 individuals were surveyed, and data were collected from a final sample of 321 participants (153 educators and 168 firefighting officials), considering gender and professional experience. Analysis of the survey results revealed a significant difference in the perception of the necessity of youth organizations between educators and firefighting officials (p < 0.001, t = 8.77). Educators had a higher awareness of the necessity, although both groups consistently exhibited negative opinions, regardless of their professional experience. Based on this, and aiming for a group with a relatively positive perspective on the future activation policy of the Korea 119 Youth Corps, the following is proposed: first, it is necessary to seek out the opinions of educators and request their cooperation; and second, it is important to consider avenues for providing numerous firefighting officials with opportunities to gain coaching experience.
