[Sejong=Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Haeyoung] Korea Ocean Business Corporation announced on the 9th that it has opened the 'Smart Shipping Center' at the Korea Job World Youth Experience Center to commemorate its 3rd anniversary.


It has been six months since signing a business agreement last December to operate a shipping industry job experience center with Korea Job World, the largest comprehensive job experience center for children and youth in Korea.


At the Smart Shipping Center, visitors can experience virtual navigation by becoming a ship captain. Through virtual reality (VR), participants navigate a ship from Busan Port to Hong Kong Port, safely transporting cargo and monitoring the ship's real-time information.



Hwang Hoseon, president of the corporation, said, "We hope the Smart Shipping Center will serve as an opportunity for children and youth to develop an interest in shipping," adding, "We will strive to contribute to society through talent development alongside our core business."
