On the 3rd, Chairman Chung posted on Hyundai Motor Group's official Facebook channel, saying, "I am participating in the 'GoGo Challenge,' a plastic-free campaign, at the suggestion of Ban Ki-moon, Chairman of the National Climate and Environment Council."

Chairman Chung explained, "Hyundai Motor Group constantly contemplates and strives to fulfill its corporate social responsibility for a sustainable society and environment," adding, "The expansion of eco-friendly vehicles such as electric cars and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as well as the hydrogen campaign, are part of this effort."

He stated, "We are also interested in the upcycling of plastics and are collaborating in various fields," and added, "We will reduce plastic use and increase the use of upcycled products."
