To a Happy Future for the
Citizens of Daejeon
We will always support our citizens.

Hello.

I am Kim Young-jin, the director of the Daejeon Research Institute.

The Daejeon Research Institute opened in March 2001 as the Daejeon Development Institute, and has expanded its functions and organization, becoming the Daejeon-Sejong Research Institute in 2016.

In response to changes in administrative conditions, such as the launch of the Chungcheong Metropolitan Alliance in 2025, it has been reborn as the Daejeon Research Institute.

Our institute presents the vision of being 'the policy research hub of the Chungcheong region leading South Korea,' along with three strategic goals: 1. Strengthening policy research support capabilities to create a city leading the future 2. Sharing and disseminating research outcomes that encompass the future of Daejeon as envisioned by its citizens 3. Leading innovative ESG management and creative organizational culture.

The Daejeon Research Institute is committed to nurturing a city where citizens can dream of a happy future, built on the values of innovation and inclusion, communication and participation, fairness and trust.

We ask for your continued interest and encouragement.

Thank you.
