[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyo-jin] Gwangju Bank announced on the 19th that President Song Jong-wook, recommended by Lee Seung-geon, CEO of Toss, participated in the ‘Children’s Traffic Safety Relay Challenge’ to promote a culture of child protection.

The ‘Children’s Traffic Safety Relay Challenge’ is a participatory campaign organized by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety since December last year to establish a culture prioritizing child protection and to build social consensus on preventing children’s traffic accidents.

Participants post certification photos with messages encouraging participation in traffic safety in child protection zones on social networking services (SNS) with hashtags such as #ChildProtectionZone, #TrafficSafetyPractice, #StopAtOne, #LookBothWays, #ForThreeSeconds, and #PreventFourHighRisks, and then nominate the next participant in a relay format.

President Song encouraged employees by taking photos holding traffic safety slogans together with employees and children from the company daycare center to raise awareness about preventing children’s traffic accidents. On the 2nd, Gwangju Bank and Toss signed a business agreement to activate digital new services and partnership marketing, joining hands to lead digital innovative finance.

President Song said, “I hope all local residents will unite their hearts and participate together to protect children, our future, and to prevent children’s traffic accidents.” He nominated Jeong Seong-taek, President of Chonnam National University, and Min Young-don, President of Chosun University, as the next participants.
