[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jin-ho] Woori Financial Group's Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation announced on the 1st that it held the 10th Woori Wedding Day, a wedding ceremony for multicultural couples, at the Woori Bank headquarters located in Jung-gu, Seoul.


Since 2013, the Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation has selected ten multicultural couples each year who were unable to hold a wedding due to financial difficulties, supporting all expenses including the wedding ceremony, wedding photography, and honeymoon.


The Woori Wedding Day held on the 30th of last month selected ten multicultural couples from a total of eight countries: the Philippines, Morocco, Myanmar, Vietnam, Russia, Mongolia, Taiwan, and China. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, eight couples held their weddings with a video officiation by Chairman Sohn Tae-seung and a live online broadcast. Two couples held outdoor weddings in the nature-friendly garden "Sumteo" prepared at the Woori Bank headquarters.



Sohn Tae-seung, Chairman of Woori Financial Group and Director of the Woori Multicultural Scholarship Foundation, said in his officiation, "It is an honor to share this special moment where two people from different countries and cultures become one under the name 'Woori.' I hope the Woori Wedding Day ceremony becomes a new turning point and leads to even happier families," encouraging the couples.
