[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] Papa John's announced on the 1st that Chairman Seo Chang-woo has been inaugurated as the governor of Rotary International District 3650 (Seoul).

Rotary International, founded in 1905 by American lawyer Paul Harris, is the world's largest private service organization with over 1.2 million members in 203 countries. Korea established ties with Rotary International in 1927 with the founding of the Gyeongseong Rotary Club, and in 1961, District 375 of Korean Rotary, consisting of 12 clubs, was launched. Rotary International District 3650, with about 104 clubs and over 2,400 members, is the pioneering district of Korea Rotary, originating from the country's first district.

At the inauguration ceremony held at the Grand Hyatt Seoul Hotel in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, Chairman Seo stated, "My goal during my term is to actively attract future generations aged 18 to 30 into the Rotaract Clubs within District 3650, laying the foundation for a younger Rotary. In addition to young members learning the value of sharing, I aim to support them in drawing up concrete blueprints for the future."

The inauguration ceremony was attended by former District Governor Yu Jang-hee (former Chairman of the Shared Growth Committee), former Rotary International President Lee Dong-geon (Chairman of Bubang Group), as well as club presidents and members within the district.
