[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Retired faculty members of Gwangju University (President Kim Hyukjong) are attracting attention by consecutively donating development funds with heartfelt wishes for the university's progress and love for their students.

According to Gwangju University on the 5th, Professor Ok Kyunghee of the Department of Early Childhood Education, Director of General Affairs Seol Hyesoo, and team member Park Hyungbeom of the Industry-Academic Cooperation Team, who retired in February, recently donated development funds to the Hosim Foundation, the school corporation, requesting that the funds be used for nurturing future talents and fostering human resources.

Director of General Affairs Seol Hyesoo donated 10 million won, while Professor Ok Kyunghee and team member Park Hyungbeom each contributed 5 million won as development funds.

Meanwhile, Gwangju University has a tradition of "relay development fund donations," where retired professors and staff members leave their beloved campus by donating development funds ranging from several million to tens of millions of won every year.
