[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Graduates of the Military Science Department at Dongshin University are drawing attention by continuing a scholarship donation relay for their juniors.

According to Dongshin University on the 14th, Second Lieutenant Kim Seongju (23), who graduated from the Military Science Department this year (4th class) and was commissioned as a Marine Corps officer, donated his entire first salary (2 million KRW) as a scholarship for juniors.

Lieutenant Kim said, "Last year, I saw seniors donating their entire first salary as a COVID-19 scholarship, and I also wanted to donate my entire first salary as a scholarship," adding, "Please use it for the dreams and hopes of the juniors in the Dongshin University Military Science Department who are studying hard despite the COVID-19 situation."

The scholarship donations by Dongshin University Military Science Department graduates began with Kim Chanmi (23, female), a 3rd class graduate who graduated in February last year.

When it became known that Kim donated her entire first salary received after commissioning for juniors, 4th class graduate Jeong Wonjun also joined the first salary donation, and it has continued up to Lieutenant Kim’s donation this time.

Other graduates who heard about their good deeds are also participating in the relay scholarship donations for juniors.

Ko Jaehwi, head of the Military Science Department at Dongshin University, said, "I express deep gratitude to Lieutenant Kim and several graduates who donated scholarships with affection for the Dongshin University Military Science Department," and added, "We will continuously strive and think hard to nurture talents equipped with both ability and character."

Meanwhile, the Military Science Department at Dongshin University, launched in 2014, has solidified its status as a prestigious military science department by having all graduates from the 1st class in 2018 to the 4th class in February this year pass the officer commissioning exam and be commissioned as officers in the Army and Marine Corps.
