[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyo-jin] Woori Financial Group's Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation announced on the 16th that it signed a business agreement on the 15th at the Administration Building of Sookmyung Women's University in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, to jointly cooperate on educational projects for multicultural children with Sookmyung Women's University. The signing ceremony was attended by Sohn Tae-seung, Chairman of Woori Financial Group and Chairman of Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation, Kang Jung-ae, President of Sookmyung Women's University, and others.


The Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation and Sookmyung Women's University share a commitment to strengthening the capabilities and social integration of multicultural families and signed the agreement to foster talented multicultural children and promote educational projects. They expect that combining the foundation's diverse educational project experience with Sookmyung Women's University's educational infrastructure will contribute to the growth of multicultural families.


As their first project, the foundation and Sookmyung Women's University will launch the 'Woori Multicultural Orchestra.' This initiative aims to discover musical talents among multicultural children and support professional music education to help develop their cultural and artistic abilities. The foundation will cover all educational expenses and support the orchestra's performances by inviting them to official events of group companies such as Woori Bank. Sookmyung Women's University will provide professional education through professors and music major students from its College of Music.


Chairman Sohn Tae-seung said, "We are pleased to be able to provide better support to multicultural families through this cooperation," adding, "We plan to offer various support so that multicultural children can grow into global talents who will lead the world."



The Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation is a public interest foundation established in 2012 with a 20 billion KRW endowment from Woori Bank and other affiliates of Woori Financial Group. Through scholarship, education, and cultural projects, it supports multicultural families to settle stably in Korean society.
